Can't stop
I hope you'll check out these videos of what has taken over my heart in these past few weeks: dance.
Particularly west coast swing, which I first saw at Ryles Jazz Club being informally showcased by two people I will dub "the sexiest couple ever," or SCE for short. There is Jay Z & Beyonce, there's JT & Jess Biel, and then there is SCE, who double-handedly inspired me to learn WCS.
SCE includes tall gentleman with ball cap, t-shirt and ripped jeans, and lady with black bob and full sleeve of tattoos. If you've seen them (you will be able to spot them by their sheer sexiness), let me know - I've got a major couple crush and I'd like to awkwardly tell them so.
The videos above are also inspirations. The latter is a lovely imitation of what I saw that night at Ryles, and why I needed to learn to do this thing. If you don't find that pleasant to watch, we probably wouldn't understand each other well.
The former is just the best of the best, and was provided as an example of "play" on the WCS dance floor. What is so incredible about it, in addition to the level of dancing in general, is that the whole thing is completely improvised. I am in awe.
