^*Dance Your Way Into My Heart*^
I haven't seen the news in a couple days and was so saddened by the death of Gregory Hines. I was wondering if, aside from club dancing, any of you can dance? And if so what kind of dancing can/do you do?

I too was saddened to hear of Mr. Hines passing. He was extraordinary in his dancing... and his acting was too bad either. I remember watching him in White Nights when I was younger and wishing I had talent like that.... guess not all of us are meant to have such a gift... I am just glad that he shared his.....

My wife used to do ballet and even taught it at one time. Learned to really love ballet and modern interpretive dancing with her as my influence.
My dancing is just social with my wife.

I love to dance, granted I probably look like a pregnant yak on rollerskates, but I love it none the less. I like to go club dancing but I've been known to do some country two-stepping, ball room and salsa. (You just have to love Salsa!!)

Two step, three step, waltz and jitterbug mostly. I do a little line dancing from time to time ... and a little ghetto butt shaking if I've had too much to drink.

Generally I'll only dance at weddings...which I did last night!! I don't go out clubbing, but I'd imagine that dancing is pretty similar...other than the required wedding party slow dance, it was bumping and griding all night! I'm just hoping that things progress with my groomsman!

I love to dance......I just don't get the opportunity as much anymore! Hubby isn't the best dancer on the planet (she said, remembering how big an understatement that is)!

Count me in as another saddened by the loss of Mr. Hines.
As far as my own personal dancing expertise... I think I saw Breakin' 2 Electric Boogaloo on opening day. Backspin anyone?

Sorry to hear about ;( Gregory Hines ,,,, I use to dance all kinds, waltz, slow dance, even the old square dance, and every thing in between,, kinda miss lately,, my wife/friend/universe,, became disabled about 5yrs ago from MS,, but she can still stand enough to slow dance so I dance whenever possible with her. Its incredible to beable to dance with someone you care about,, so people in Pixieland dont pass up any chance you get to enjoy a dance
