silver lining

I managed to actually eat before gong to salsa class, which means I didn't have to order food afterwards.  That was sweet, but the class itself was sweeter.  We learned more turns and how to spin our partner, and we have a lot of opportunity to practice.  I danced with Shannon, Cassie, and Sarah (all from last week) and with Michelle and Renee as well (new faces this week).  By the end I hope to dance with the whole class.  Then I can get my shoes stamped (or something like that).

Oddly enough, the hardest thing of the night was remembering a crossing back step that gets me out of the way of my partner before I turn her.  Once I got that one bit, it improved the entire rest of the routine.

Hopefully I can practice some more of these before the next class.  It's hella fun.
