Hi here’s a clip from a comedy show called “Peep Show”

I’ve been going to a dance class a bit like it… in the class the leader shows us two or so moves per song and she improvises. The group also improvises. The whole time we’re walking or jumping around forward, side-to-side, backwards, and turning on the spot. We do old fashioned dances, house music, tribal music, ambient music and at the end we lie on the ground and meditate to the leader’s instructions.

It is good for me because I find it hard to remember the moves in other dance classes. It is also interesting to be moving all around the room. And I like how some people are really good at their dance moves. I’m pretty stiff.

Last night we even had to dance in pairs for a little while. There was an odd number of people and I was left out so I ended up dancing with the girl I came with and the person she was dancing with.
