Sundays I bike down to International folk dancing, dance for 3 hours, and bike home again. So Monday night dancing is a hard sell for me, even though the Scandinavian group is very warm and welcoming. Tonight they were teaching Rorospols, though, which I know just well enough to know I like it and have a lot more to learn. So I biked over there, learned happily, danced some of the other dances, and then came home again.

What you can't tell so much from this video is that it's a flirtatious dance, lots of eye contact as you do the figures. Fun! Also, syncopated steps against the music, which keeps this Balkan dancer interested.

I'm glad it was worth it! It sounds potentially very tiring. :)
