    Strictly Ballroom

    Are there any ballroom dancers among our many members?

    Did anyone take hustle lessons during the disco era?

    No, a sweetheart I was dating taught me the Hustle.

    During the '90s PBS broadcast the Dancesport Chamionships which I enjoyed immensely. Then PBS ended the broadcasts for some reason. So I will check this out. I enjoy ballroom dancing very much and will continue with it as long as I am able.

    Every day we live with the rude, crude, crass, socially unacceptable, mundane, mediocre etc. Ballroom dancing provides style, grace, elegance and glamor that is generally missing from our lives. And I still love spinning a pretty girl across a dance floor whether it be a Hustle or a Cha Cha Cha. :D

    The PBS ballroom show "America's Ballroom Challenge" will be shown locally today at 4:00 EST. Check your local listings to find out when it will be shown in your area.

    This was on TeeVee Wednesday night and is very good. It lacks the mob mentality of "Dancing With The Stars". You'll enjoy it.

    I watched the first hour and enjoyed it. Even saw a familiar face... Tony from DWTS.

    I think they should change the name of the program to Russia's Ballroom Challenge as practically everyone on the show had names like Yuri Jerkov and Katerina Petrochova. :lol: :lol: :lol:
