Tap tap tipitty tap

HHOOOOHH my goodness!  Yesterday was my first tap dancing lesson since college. SOOO MUCH FUN!

Tap dancing makes me feel like my heart and soul are soaring.  I know that I dance nothing like the greats of the past like Sammy Davis Jr., Gene Kelly or Donald O'Connor, but I certainly have just as much fun.  Yesterday at my lesson I was all giddy and giggly and silly.  Whenever I messed up I would just start to laugh.  I know that sooner or later (probably sooner rather than later) I will have a practice day that is absolutely and utterly frustrating and overwhelming, but yesterday was SO great! We started learning the shim sham...OOOOW!


I'm extremely excited to continue my lessons and have decided that I'm committed to taking lessons for the next year.  Usually with dancing I do a class for one quarter and then decide that it's too expensive and stop.  After a couple of years I can't contain myself anymore and break down to buy another quarter of classes. Now I've decided that I love it so much that I need to make the sacrifices necessary to allow myself to do it for the next year.

WOOHOO!!!
