I remember when my mom and I used to put on her cds and dance around the house. This was late 80s or early 90s and she was into a little country. The Texas Tornadoes was one of her faves. Great for how-down moves!

We also had a pretty standard air band dance that we did to the song, "Chain of Fools." I can do a mean air-harmonica.

Then, I took formal dance classes at age 14, loved it, and guess what....I'm getting my MFA in DANCE!

I'll look for pictures...

You understand we're going to demand the air-harmonica, yes?
Because we are!

I did ballet for a few years when I was very very young and then was involved with musical theater for most of my life. I always hated dancing and never considered myself any good at it. In fact when I played Oliver in Oliver! at age 17 I was given remedial dance lessons so I wouldn't make a fool of myself. So I always dreaded dancing... until TSDO!

Here though is quite possibly the first time I ever "danced" at age 14 months:

My parents forced me to take standard dancing lessions when I was 15 or so. I genuinely hated every single moment of these althogether 10 hours. I've always loved doing things with my voice - I hate making my whole tall gawky self visible if it can be avoided.

I absolutely lost it to my dad's old and scratchy Elvis single King Creole when I was little, I guess somewhere around 7 years of age. Ecstatic dancing in my room! No video or photographic evidence.
