Tulip, I wish I had the talent for Latin. Jeff can dance most of those rhythms, but I find I don't have the "hip wiggle" it seems to require. I'm too stiff. I can fake the swing, waltz, foxtrot, etc., but anything beyond that usually finds me making a mess of it. Do you take lessons?
Maybe it's in my Iberian genes, I don't know, but I my hips just go. I have taken lessons in the past (years ago) and I think I will either take more lessons or just go dancing with my SO. He's such a good dancer (but no Iberia in him!).
