About Us
The earliest memories I have of fun things in my life are riding horses, twirling a baton and dancing.
I still enjoy two of the three...
lost the baton many years ago!

My friend Scott Lappin has a phrase: To live is to dance, to dance is to live.
I totally agree.

This website came about as an idea from another friend who told me that my dance newsletter was too much work every week. He told me to create a website and just send out updates. Sending out updates is still a lot of work, but I liked the idea of a website. As I have no idea about how these things work... it is another labor of love from my friend Geoff. Thanks so much.
 
Dancing is my passion in life. I have said many times over the years that "Dancing is the best "drug" on the planet." I am totally addicted and don't ever want to find an antidote! This sport is a great equalizer. There are participants of all ages, nationalities and financial levels who come together for the love of dancing. They don't care who you are, what you do for a living and most of the time don't even know your last name or where you live and yet they consider you a good friend. This is the strange and wonderful world of dancing. Welcome to the family!
 
For any men who are reading this... let me tell you that a man who can dance is a hot commodity. Women will line up to dance with you as long as you smile and give us your best effort. We will be supportive as you learn to be a leader and will cheer your victories and tell you not to worry about mistakes. We all had to start at the beginning and everyone learns at a different pace. What other sport can you play where within five minutes of entering a room you can have the woman of your choice in your arms, move with her around a floor with music and soft lighting and create moves that may get you slapped "off the floor", but when the song ends you get a "Thank You. please ask me again." Puts a whole new view on something that you probably fought "tooth and nail" to avoid! In the words of my friend Bruce - a former football player - It's a whole lot more fun to line-up in the ballroom with a group of ladies than the guys on the field that are just interested in pounding me into the turf! Sounds like a "no-brainer" to me!
 
I want to share the joy of dancing with everyone who visits this website. Please feel free to ask questions and sign our guestbook!
 
I always sign my e-mails with Hugs, Lisa ;-) I do this because hugs are a very important part of life. You need at least 8 hugs a day for good health. So let's share health and happiness by sharing hugs. Add a random act of kindness every day and let's change the world one smile at a time.
 
Happy Dancing!
 
Hugs, Lisa ;-)
