Last night my girlfriend and I decided to take up salsa lessons as from next week. In reality the lesson will be more for me as she dances it very well but she has just lost practice. About a year ago we started going to dance lessons at the Three Roses bar which is now the Theatre Royal Bar (another small change in Gibraltar’s face), where they used to give classes on Monday nights.
The first lesson was the hardest as I had two left feet at the time and could not dance even if my life depended on it, so the instructor decided to take me out of the group and teach me to dance in front of the class while everyone was practicing behind me. After that one lesson I would not call myself a dancer but at least now I could do the basic steps and even a few moves but that still needs a bit of practice as I sometimes miss a step or two.

The only sad part about it they had to stop doing the classes so I have spent a year without going to one but now, from next week I will be able to start up again and hopefully get better at it.
