In Spain they love a bullfight,
They do it by day and by night,
They posture and pose with a smell underneath their nose,
Come on let's all get it right...
In the Waltz you need rise and fall,
Step one on the heel then the ball,
To improve your display - try to get sway,
The right turn starts facing the wall... never forget that!
Staccato's the key to the Tango,
Hold tight girls and just let the man go,
Down Argentine way they do it all day,
But never of course to a banjo...
The dance is fast and alive,
Keep cool if you want to survive,
There's kicks and there's flicks and plenty of tricks,
One warning - don't drink and Jive...
Remember whilst dancing the Rumba to act like a cool cucumber,
With the correct hip action,
You'll be the attraction,
and get requests for your telephone number...
In the Quickstep you're moving at speed,
So ladies follow his lead,
You'll fly round the floor at 50 or more,
So a safety belt is the thing that you'll need...
Get to know out celebrity dancers and their partners.
Learn and new dance and find a class in your area.
