1. I met mambo 18 years ago. 2. My biggest struggle right now is not having a community in which to regularly social dance at an intermediate or higher level or to take classes in. Months and months go by sometimes before I am able to dance. In general, I've never been in one place with a strong dance community long enough to make consistent gains in my speed and develop great technique. 3. Intermediate 4. I want to stay connected to my dance practice on a regular basis so I can continue to clean my basics and grow as a dancer. I want to feel much more comfortable dancing to fast songs with advanced partner work. Right now, it is a huge effort to get through songs like that. I always have fear that I'm about to make some major mistake in my following so I'd like to gain more confidence. I've finally started studying Spanish and I want to go deeper into the relationship between the songs and the dance, and really connect it all together. Gracias!
