your forro or mine?

so apparently i can pick up forro better than i can pick up capoeira.

it wasn't as raunchy like lambada as i thought it would be, though i'm sure you can take it that far. it was really fun learning and my instructor and his band played magnificently.

diss: so i was listening to the music and loving it, and really wanting someone to ask me to dance. i thought "what the hell, i'll just ask a stranger," and so asked a gentleman that i had seen dancing earlier that i thought would be nice enough to dance with a beginner like me. OH NO GIRLFRIEND, i got rejected!!! he mumbled something about not feeling well, though later on he was dancing happily with someone more experienced. WHATEVER YOU FORRO SNOB!

later on a guy asked me to dance, and we danced several times. he was a very good teacher and i picked it up easily after dancing with him for a while. it is good fun and the forro style itself is more laidback and relaxed compared to its salsa cousin.

comparison: CET gets rejected by Mr. Forro Snob; vij gets picked up by the best dancer in the room. sigh. she was in a trance watching him bust his moves - i guess it paid off because he soon crossed the room and asked her to dance!

anyhoo, it was a brilliant night filled with great music and fancy dance moves - i'm definitely going again next thursday.

CET :o)
