Introduction
Rhythm in my feet sets me free! I'm a health researcher and educator who danced my way through graduate school, The University of Texas at Austin. A crazed Austrian taught me, so Viennese Waltzers beware! Should the Texan fine be $106/CEJ obscenity?
Do you know of any classes that would be of interest to our gruop?
No answer yet

Decades. Dating myself! ;^{)

What Galen Knight is saying about this Meetup Group
If you love to dance and appreciate music and joy in your life then this is the meetup for you! There is no wrong way to dance, and it is wrong if you just do not do it for fear of what you will look like on the floor. Chuckles!

Organizer Appreciation Dance w/ Freddie Chavez
"This "turned out" to be surprisingly good, since a lot of people showed. Our organizers were too busy or under the weather to attend, but that didn't stop the rest of us from having fun."

Tango Lessons for $1 Suggested Donation TONIGHT
"OK, so I removed the cheeky but accurate stuff in the e-mail notices, but I was amazed at how they accurately predicted peoples experiences last night. I've attended about 4 to 5 introductory tango lessons and this was the absolute best one! ..."

FREE Swing Dance with LIVE Band - ABQ Dance Crew Meetup!
"This was a swing dancing extravaganza. I couldn't dance, but helped with the lessons....where any space-filler helped. I wonder how the "performers" can do all that without breaking a sweat. LOL!"

Mystery Lady Dance @ Denims & Diamonds of Graham Central Station
"I did a little slam dancing with a gravel road at about 20 to 30 mph, when I should have been mountain-biking, yesterday, so I wasn't able to dance, and had to go ice the shoulder and work some herbal magic by about 8:30. ..."
