Partner dancing is communicative, kinetic art. The dance floor is the canvas, the music is your paint, while you and your partner become the brush that creates the painting.
All forms of dancing gives you a wonderful and spiritual-like natural high...the sensation and emotions that one experiences from social dancing is totally indescribable. Dancing is also great for one's emotional and mental well-being as well as for your physical health.
Naturally it does take some work and lessons to get there, but once you know a few basics of the dance it will all be worth it. Another benefit of dancing is that you will meet some very wonderful people from all over the world who share a similar passion, many of whom will become lifelong friends.
Frankie Manning, the Ambassador of Lindy Hop shared his approach to dancing, "The music...fashioned my style of dancing."
