The Addiction that is Ice Dance

The times I've handed a lesson fee to Dance Coach in an envelope. Or the day I sat with him with a stack of money on the bench between us while we added up music cutting charges, lesson fees, and whatever else I owed him. In the end I was digging stray fives out of my boot bag.

Yes, it looks like a drug deal in the movies. And my drug of choice is ice dance.

Once you swallow the ice dance blue pill you have two options:

Good Trip




Bad Trip
 Choose your costumes wisely....

  1. I think ice skating is a much better way to spend money than drugs :)
    I'm starting rowing lessons soon and after Learn to Row, the first punch card is half price. My husband asked me "what, are they drug dealers?"

    1. One day 2 of his students separately stopped me in the lobby with their checks, "Give this to Dance Coach" was pretty much the refrain. When I handed the checks over I said, "What am I, your bagman?" Which is where the idea for this post came from.

    1. Then watch the much better Aboriginal original dance, by skaters who actually took advice from an Aboriginal dance group: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZxkUcGdwowM
