I, like others, would love to learn. Also like others, not much is offered around here. There's also the dilemma of finding someone to learn with....even if it's just a friend.

several years ago there was a class being taught in my community...it was held every friday and offered up something for those of us that do not enjoy the bar scene. I took this class so i could dance at my daughter's wedding, suffice it to say, i had no one to dance with at her wedding so the classes i think were more for me ...i learned a lot.

just dance

partner dancing is beautiful

Needless to say, I LOVE dancing, couples dancing with a strong lead in particular. Once my life settles just a bit I'm going to start taking lessons even if I don't have a regular partner - Dancing has saved my life more than once and it still nourishes my soul in ways that nothing else can, even if I'm just dancing by myself.

There is a dance festival in NY every year that is very gay-friendly that I've wanted to go to for years. One of these days I'll make it there!

DWM. Which festival are you thinking of?
The one I've talked to you about before?

We have a large traditional dance community here and one of the cool parts of it is a lot of gender bending. Not necessarily about being attracted to the same sex, but that it's a place where the even some of the most traditional men bust out their skirts and dresses and dance with each other and the women dance with each other wearing whatever they want and taking turns leading how they please.

One of my closest friends and I were both partnered for years to soft butches who would not go dancing with us. We both loved the OFOS atmosphere at the traditional dances here, and would leave our partners at home and go dance with the men, snickering about it a lot, but having fun with the dancing part of it all. Too bad we never had any of the OFOS butches come to the dances but maybe someday there will be an infusion!

I'm so GLAD you said this, I tend to lead rather well in dance, I can follow but it's rare to find anyone who can dance salsa who can lead. Boy of beer takes great mental, vocal, and beat direction so we flow quite nice onna dance floor, if needed during a cumbia hy's secure enough to let me lead till he gets it.

Believe it or not there are allot of dance studios that teach same sex couples:

Locations: New York, Ohio, Mass, Many along the coast of California, Dallas, Chicago, Baltimore, DC, FL, CT, RI, PA, KS and many more.

some don't even require you to bring a partner*shrugs* seems its a growing thing here in the states...and more and more competitions are popping up every year.

of course for me it's just about dancing and having fun

Oh and I love west coast swing and lead during that too!

My first girl-friend, the femme (pre-butches), always had me lead and it is tough to let that go!

It is always my first inclination.

I love love love to dance. I have always wanted to take lessons as well. I basically learned how to two-step and waltz at the local bars here and in TX. I wonder if at one of the reunions, they could have some dance lessons pre party or something like that. It would be fun for sure. Plenty of Butches and femmes around there to have a partner or two.

I'd be very willing to pay a lot of money to learn to do this. I expect I would have to make do with a partner and videos in my living room.

Oh, I miss dancing with a partner!!

When I lived in Texas there were all sorts of places to go to dance. Now here in lower Alabama, not so much. Wish we could find a place that the Brutal One could go learn, but they don't welcome his 'type.' LOL!!!!

I'm also one that tends to forget and try and lead. Drives people crazy:-)

Now if there were only lessons that could teach single butches and femmes not to be too shy to ask each other to dance. I was fine asking femmes to dance with me but didn't have the nerve to ask any butches to dance Lessons before the dance would make people feel less shy once they got to the actual dance, IMO
