Plenty of time, right?
Sure, Laura.
Fingers crossed it will all come together nice and smoothly, with no hiccups.
The dancing is going well and our routine is almost finished, so soon we’ll be working on tidying our steps and adding some pizazz.
Jazz hands maybe? Hmmm.
Not so jazzy is how stiff my knee has been this week - word of advice, don’t enter long-distance running events without training.
No pain though, so I’m hoping it’s just a blip of stiffness and back to normal.
One thing’s for sure, this dancing journey has definitely been an opportunity for learning.
Some nights I leave the hall with my brain humming with information overload.
And the brain can’t always keep up with the feet - it’s a real process learning where to go, on what count, and in which direction.
