The time I fell in love with British folk dancing


So I had been hesitant to try British folk dancing because I am an idiot. That's it, that the reason. But this week I finally gave into peer-pressure and I must say I am HOOKED! Basically, because it's like the dancing they do in every single Jane Austen film adaptation. Konrad says "that's not how people in Jane Austen's time would dance" but my answer to him is "That's not what Hollywood says."

BOOM! I got my own GIF now.

We did things like these (minus the dresses):











And my personal favorite: The Gypsy Meltdown.

That's right, we went there. Of course, I could not keep a straight face throughout, so I ended up being very much a Lydia Bennet, giggles and all. But it was awesome and I can't wait to do it again!!
