One of the best past-times to meet people is dancing, as in Latin & Ballroom. It's a passion that my wife and I have spent a lifetime enjoying, and met so many new friends along the way. Partner dancing, by it's very nature, will get you into the company of new friends. We can only just about manage a shuffle these days but there was a time. Let me share something with you.
Fifteen years ago, back in 2009, my mother-in-law passed away. To help my wife through her bereavement I took her on a long, four day weekend to her beloved Scotland. Whilst in Glasgow we saw a poster for a vintage style burlesque show followed by dancing. We called into the theatre and found the box office open, and, there were a few tickets left.
I treated us to the show tickets and the optional meal. What a night it was. We made many new friends, we also caught the attention of a dance critic, or so he thought. (Don't give up the day job.) Our dancing had strangers coming up to us, complimenting us and getting us back on the floor to copy our steps.
