Happy National Dance Day!

Out come the old tap shoes this morning. Why? To celebrate National Dance Day 2012, of course. And tap is still my favorite type of dancing. So I'm gonna brush up my time step, soft shoe and shuffle-off-to Buffalo moves today. Hope everyone else joins in with whatever form of dancing they prefer, even if it involves just swingin' and swayin'. Have fun!   

Warming Up for National Dance Day

Get ready, everyone, for National Dance Day next Saturday, July 31st! Lace up your worn-out tap shoes or dust off your old ballet slippers or put on your stompin’ boots and prepare to perform whatever dance moves make you happy. You might even prefer a barefoot hula or an old-fashioned twist while wearing any footwear at hand.

As an avid tap dancing fan, I plan to start out the day with a shuffle off to buffalo into the kitchen for breakfast. Then right before lunch I’ll perform my waltz clog while the soup heats up. The afternoon will probably be devoted to a variety of time step routines. And after supper, I’ll try to dazzle my hubby with some intricate soft shoe moves.

To finish off the day, watching one of the following DVD movies would make me very happy indeed: Tap, Mad Hot Ballroom, Footloose, Invitation to the Dance, Shall We Dance, Take the Lead, Dance Flick, Only When I Dance, Dirty Dancing, Happy Feet, That’s Dancing!

What are your plans?
