birdog1960 Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 ballroom dancing is a contact sport. good thing she wasn't doing the horizontal mambo. that can be very aggressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chef Jim Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 No, she was on TV 30 years ago. I doubt you watched much TV in your 60's. Well I began to slow down a bit then. You know, that's when that new-fangled cable TV came out with their fancy remote controls. Hey someone has to replace Stuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife and I dance and I have to be carefully not to hyper-extend her shoulders while leading. PTR Edited April 10, 2012 by PromoTheRobot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually thinkgthat was mom and dad speak for "your mom got drunk as a skunk and fell down." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KD in CA Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Was this your remote? http://netninja.com/...ad-pushbuttons/ I had that one....of course it wasn't really a 'remote' since it was wired to the TV and just sat on top of the set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

birdog1960 Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 NH. I assume you are talking about country line/two-step/pattern partner dancing? PTR no, ballroom. they do it twice a year on off seasons to fill the place up. some very good dancers from virginia, pa,ohio, west virginia there. i'm thinking new hampshires a bit far. don't know of anything similar near there but there might well be. i know of a similar weekend in nashville (opryland hotel, and yes, it's ballroom with big bands) for more than double the cost. theres also one at the grove park in asheville.

Don't know much about ballroom but dances like the two-step, swing, shag, nightclub two, cha-cha, etc. are lead-and-follow dances where the woman gets her cues from the man. There is no step pattern. It's all done on the fly. Quite challenging to do well. Been doing it for years and I'm still a noob.
