Cha Cha in China

To clear our minds of the incessant rain trapping us indoors, we followed a few of our students downtown to sign up for Cha Cha lessons. Why not? After two lessons we realize that the range of motion of our hips is significantly less than that of our tight-jeaned Chinese instructor and that our oblique muscles need some serious exercise. But the teacher is excellent and we have made incremental progress and can now hum the cha cha beat while walking to class. It really is a small world!
