More About Me
I'm a social ballroom dancer who also likes to compete and go to social dances in public venues as well as studio parties. I love period balls (Colonial, Jane Austen, Civil War) and Viennese Balls. I started ballroom dancing in the '80's, danced for a couple years, branched off into contra and got back into ballroom on a regular basis in 2007.
At this point I only know American Style ballroom, and lately I've been exploring my inner cowgirl by dancing CW. If I pick up International it's going to be like way down the road, unless I start dancing in Europe. I took private lessons at a small studio in Alexandria which followed the Fred Astaire syllabus and now take lessons at a studio in Fairfax which follows the DVIDA syllabus. I have competed at the Bronze and Silver level in small local one-day competitions. I also enjoy performing showcases.
While competing Pro-Am is fun, I really enjoy competing as an amateur, since you and your partner are equally responsible for the performance, not to mention it's a lot more economical.
I'm Looking For
A social and practice partner would be nice, someone who likes to showcase or compete would be even nicer. I'm not a dance snob, I'll dance with a beginner since we were all there once and only practice makes you get better. Regarding age, I'll dance with anyone from someone who doesn't need to be carded (over 21) to however old you are as long as you don't need a walker.
I am looking for someone who is a general ballroom dancer rather than specializing in a particular dance.
