What's the dominant emotion in Ceroc?

[Paulthetrainer]

I'm a Psychologist and even I don't have an answer to that one!

I'm an opinionated know-it-all, and even I'm stuck on this one!

Is forgetfulness an emotion?

When I dance, nothing else matters. Everything else going on in my life (good or bad) disappears and all that's left is me, my partner and the music. When I have a good dance there are only two people left in the world, no one and nothing else exists.

Getting back to the real world afterwards is sometimes hard!

No - but it is a sign of ageing!

I don't see that as forgetfullness - more as a kind of meditative state. Not that I get this all the time, but when I do, it's an incredible feeling. One that often robs me of my powers of speech, for some reason. Which is one of the reasons I don't like talking while dancing...

That too.

To me this totally sums up someone that understands 'the dance'

I can do this with lots of people and try with all, New Years Eve at Berko I had two dances with a guy some what older than me (tactful) much smaller to any one else we would look and odd couple, but, wow! what dances, we even got a round of applause from the people sitting watching, we were both totally lost in the dance, at the end i kissed him on the cheek said thank you and walked off, ... .......yes back to reality

Nope - one's a business, the other is a dance form.

To quote the ceroc.com website:


In other words, you can learn Modern Jive at a Ceroc class.

(Or a "CEROC" class, even )

This is really just a legal ploy. Ceroc used to say they taught you how to Ceroc - even on their web site.

The problem is that if the dance is called Ceroc then anyone can set up a Ceroc class in the same way that anyone can set up a Lindy Hop, Waltz, Tango (or whatever) class.

The only way to protect the name is for Ceroc to state formally that Ceroc is simply the business name - as they now do on the web site - and that they teach something else.

Was going to say forgetfulness too.. but for completely different reasons
("Erm.. yoyo.. yoyo.. erm.. yoyo .. aha! man spin.. comb.. erm.. yoyo! Yoyo..")

forgetfulness and/or panic perhaps
