I used to take lessons at Arthur Murray studios and learned to tango, waltz, swing/club swing, rumba, and merengue. At an actual party or club, I do none of those and never have. I dance hip hop.. but I can't tell you the names of any of the steps I do. I let the music move me.

I don't actually do any of those although I teach ballet, jazz, tap, and hip-hop. I learned a little salsa while in Mexico and loved it! I am currently looking to take Salsa lessons. You are never too old to learn something new!
