So it's New Year's Eve and I'm at a loft party in DUMBO. By all accounts I should be having the time of my life. But no. Instead I'm ""that guy"" you see at every party; standing in the corner with hands in my pockets and a very serious look on my face. It didn't take too long to realize that I'm that guy because I wasn't dancing. Right then and there I realized what my New Year's resolution was... In 2009 I will dance! The afternoon of January 1st I registered for the beginners class with Jessica and I haven't looked back. I went dancing for my birthday (Feb. 24)!\r
\r
I registered for another series of classes. The beginners classes are not only small but all the students are new to the world of dancing so it's impossible to even think that you're making a fool of yourself. If your fear of stepping on the dance floor is as socially debilitating for you as it was for me I highly suggest taking a class at Shockra. I can't say that I'll be dancing in any music videos tomorrow, but if I stick to it maybe that will be my resolution for 2010 ;o)... For now, at least when I go out I'm not wallflowering it anymore.\r

Shockra Rocks!\r
