Member Introductions -- Index

[ProgressNotPerfection]

we've got a two year old son, I've advanced a significant amount in my career, we're building a house, and we had our first dance lesson back a fortnight ago. I'm pleasantly surprised to learn that we have not, in fact, forgotten everything. There are muscles I haven't used for years but we still know how to move. Dancing feels just as good, if not better, than ever, and we are feeling connected to each other again.

Not really a member introduction, but: apparently, today is the day I passed 7,000 messages to DF. I realize that, compared to some of the OG (Peaches, Samina, Elise, yada yada), that's nothing. But it seems like a lot to me.

Also, LIONESS!! HOW GREAT TO SEE YOU!!

Yeah, but you are still here, with your unique perspective and wit. I always enjoy your posts.

(I do miss the old crowd that used to post so much. I wonder how they're doing. I wonder whether dance is still part of their lives.)

Peaches: not dancing much. Samina: not dancing. About Elise, I know zip.

Welcome! I am also in LA. It looks like you speak Spanish also. I saw you helped with the translation in a thread about Spanish.

I love thread starters who start interesting topics. Perhaps there is some dance song in Spanish that would be interesting to translate and tell us a little bit about the meaning of that song. if you think this is doable, I would love that! I remember on the other form we had a pretty popular thread about Bemba Colora.

Sure I would love to help with translations.

Awesome! You’re welcome to try to start a new post about a song that you like, hopefully one that people dance to like salsa or Bachata. And maybe talk about the lyrics in Spanish and how you like them or what is interesting about them. Just if you want to. It’s really helpful to have people who are good thread starters so we have more interesting Topics here.
