Not strictly ballroom

SO now i know how to dance the English Waltz (finally a true English gentleman, joelle said) and the Cha Cha Cha.

Or at least i know the basics. Problem is it gets rather boring when you repeat the same sequence of 8 bars throughout an entire song. Still i guess i shouldn't expect too much from a 45min class with 25 other couples...

I tried to introduce some of the moves i learnt in salsa. Except i realised i don't actually remember that much! On Monday (a rare day off) i found myself walking in salsa rhythm along a stream in Basel. It was such a beautiful spring morning. I was really trying to get my hips going, to make that nice triangle between shoulders, hips & knees. I must have looked so ridiculous! Oh, now I miss those Thursday nights. I remember how my body & mind would be so refreshed, so liberated, as i moved to those Cuban grooves. Caro, what happened to our Tango idea...?

Merci, Jo, d'une tres bonne soiree.

is the triangle that needs to be formed the same one you used to do at IPM?
or is it more like the strategic triangle, in which case im worried about the 'brand':)
