Why Dance

Socrates learned to dance when he was seventy because he felt that an essential part of himself had been neglected. ~Source Unknown

Ballroom Dancing

[Ballroom Dancing] just gets more exciting the more you know about it, which is why you have to do well at school so you can spend the rest of your life supporting your habit. Just don't plan to marry anyone who dislikes dancing; it'll probably win in the end!! ~ Kay Teague, Youth College Network Coordinator

Best Starting Points
