Dance Thoughts

I do love to dance!

Well a lot has happened in the last couple of years. In December of 2020, Terri and I moved to a 55 plus community in Poinciana Florida. In January of 2021, I retired from my day job. I thought that it would take a lot of time to get used to retirement. I was wrong.

We have been dancing a few times in nearby cities. There is a club in Lake Ashton and the Worlocks teach round dancing in Plant City. The roads aren't very good at least in central Florida, so we prefer to stay in the Solivita community and we prefer driving a golf cart instead of a car.

There was a square dance club in Solivita but it went dormant early in the pandemic. The club sponsor was not interested in starting it back up, so I took over the sponsorship. In November 2021, we had our first club meeting. We have had up to three squares and hope to add more.

We have started taking ballroom lessons in Solivita. The classes are generally in American Smooth and Rhythm. Some dancers have expressed an interest in round dancing, so we will try to start up a round dance class after the square dance club is well established. Terri is especially excited of the posibility to add a round dance club to Solivita.

My Current Club:

Sundays, Solivita Squares, 3:30 - 5:30 (3:30 - 4:30 Continuing Dancers, 4:30-5:30 New Dancers), The Palms in Solivita, Poinciana, Florida
