Count to 10 and read agian before you hit post. That should be my new moto. The Tapestry Folkdance center has a website if you just google it. Lots of people I know have been there. Whenever I go to that area of S. Minneapolis I get lost, a misdirection curse I suppose, so I havn't been yet. The free lessons are at Lee's Liqour Lounge every Wed at 8:00 PM in Minneapolis and at The MN Music Cafe in St. Paul at 8:00 PM every Thursday. Try it and see if you like it then pay another good moto Sorry I need self editing. Count to 10 and read agian before you hit post. That should be my new moto.

Don't you have to start as a chid to do ballet or be undr 25? Swing, salsa, and ballroom I have heard of. Lots of places in the cities teach that. If you want the more obscure you can also go to The Tapestry Folkdance center in Minneapolis. You don't have to be a star to dance! Usually you have to pay for lessons but I know a few places that have them for free. I have heard of ballet of coarse but those other dance are unfamilar.

However this Lightsey chick failed to mention Community Ed.<br /> I heart community ed. I took belly dancing for a couple of years through Community Ed and got pretty good at it. The classes are inexpensive, the instructors are excellent, and everyone in the class is as nervous as you. There is even a recital!<br /> <br /> Great post!

Afterward, I gently reminded him that he was the one to coin the immortal phrase "Love makes a man stupid."<br /> <br /> I watched a friend salsa dance with a girl one night at First Avenue.
