Dave’s Dance Experience:
Like many baby boomers his foray into the world of dance was during his college days (mid-seventies) and took place at Fraternity/Sorority parties, flailing without any sense of purpose or rhythm to songs from Lynyrd Skynyrd, Bruce Springsteen, and the Beach Boys. Baby Boomers everywhere, you know what Dave is talking about.
Fun Facts about Dave:
He is a bona fide track and field nut. He was an All American in college and an age group National Champion in the Decathlon. He has coached track at two universities and five high schools. His fear is that all of his learning and teaching of great footwork in the various track events will not help him with this journey into the world of dance.
