I didn't...Tammi and I took part in a program called Dancing Feet and they have a 7th grade ballroom dance curriculm. We went to 3 workshops to learn 5 different routines (Waltz, Tango, Cha Cha, Merengue, and West Coast Swing). It is then up to the teachers to pick a team of students, teach them the dances, and compete against other 7th graders at this competition. Tammi and I are exhausted but thrilled to death that our kids took home the 1st place trophy.
