Welcome to 2013

Well dance friends, its New Year’s Day and I hope you’re not nursing too bad a hangover after last night’s bacchanalia. We had a grand time dancing and dining the last hours of 2012 away at Starlight Ballroom last night. As the champagne toasts finished up and the last strains of Auld Lang Syne died away, the evening left me thinking back to the year that was and all that happened.

In 2012 we decided not to go on any dance trips. We’d hoped to make the trip to Chicago for Halloween, but jobs and circumstance conspired and we decided to spend the holiday in Indy dancing with Indy Dancers, Brickyard Boogie Dancers, and Indy Singles. We started Tango lessons and learned some Swango moves to add to our West Coast Swing. We made some great friends in 2012 and met some great dancers, people who have made dancing even more fun.

What does 2013 hold for us? More Tango and Swango, that’s for certain. We’re also contemplating travelling for some lessons during the year, but we’ll have to wait to see how those pan out. Mostly we’ve made a pact to focus on developing our style to play to our strengths and minimize our weaknesses and, as always, having fun and writing about it here!
