icepixie: (Dance Me to the End of Love)
Remember Igor and Svetlana, Kenyon's ballroom coaches that I used to talk about a lot? Well, someone has put up videos of them on YouTube! In particular, this Tango is pretty awesome. I always wanted to be even a hundredth as fabulous as them. Never quite succeeded before graduation. (If you view all that person's videos, there's one of the 9/11 dance [highly recommended; it is beautiful] as well, and some random other bits and bobs, mostly footage from studio classes or demonstrations. Oh, and some clips from Russian parties. I don't speak Russian, so I'm not sure what that's all about.)

I also stumbled across this video from the Two-Step World Championships. While my mind is breaking at the sight of typically hideous ballroom costumes with cowboy boots, that actually looks like it would be fun to learn. It's like the bastard child of line dancing, rumba, and swing. And it's not at madly fast speeds. Also, I have to admit, despite the fact that it's breaking my brain, the footwear looks a lot more comfortable than my spiky Latin heels ever thought of being.
