Awesome! Is it a one time thing? What kind of dance? More details please.
yes- one time thing. three hours of Fosse dancing. I'm excited but scared that I'll look like an idiot. At least I'm going with 3 friends.
That sounds like a lot of fun!!! Although I don't know if I'd be brave enough to try it - I've never had much ability to dance. :) I hope you have an awesome time next week!!
