    I have a twirly skirt, with a lining that's not so twirly - and that's caught a certain chap out on a couple of occasions.

    I've have just been to Prague and after dancing with my friend, another female (I was leading), a lovely guy asked me to dance. I have to say it was one of the best dances of my life. Before I knew it there was a string of blokes, all different nationalities, asking me to dance and I have to say it was one of the most "magical" nights of my life, especially the dance with the extremely handsome
    Italian . (Sshh don't tell my husband ) . Every one of them were amazing dancers!!

    All I can say is who needs to communicate with speech when you have the universal language of DANCE!!

    What has dancing taught me?

    1. Always wear sensible knickers under skirts. Always.

    2. Fake nails really are for people who have lazy hands.

    3. Black is my best friend.

    4. Don't judge a book by its cover - the best dancers are often not the best looking.

    5. Practice does make perfect.

    6. Standing on your own feet is a really bad, stupid thing to do.

    - A good dancer will practice until they get it right. A great dancer will practice until they never get it wrong. - Adrian Murphy, Creator of "Feet of Flames" (or something like that) and highly inspirational Irish dancing teacher I met when I was about 10.

    Flames = Fire
    And yes, you can see he lives by those words. For those (most) of you, who don't know Adrian and/or haven't seen any of his performances: He leaves Riverdance and sequels for dead. And I mean it! His choreographies combine a number of influences, among them Maori dance and music. "Feet of Fire" was the only dance performance that I have seen so far the had me pick up my jaw from the floor and mad me shiver in awe.

    • Dancing is a great form of stress relief.
    • Dancing is addictive.
    • A bit of effort can go a long way in improving your dancing.
    • It beats playing rugby hands down!
    • Dancing, even with good dancers, can sometimes cause injury or aggravate other injuries.
    • Dancing with a known yanker is never enjoyable, but especially not when carrying a shoulder injury
