I'm not exactly an outgoing person, and was really nervous when I started, but eventually that "part" of me that wanted to just do it took over. Someday you should try it!
It took a few dances, and I was hooked...I live almost an hour away from a big city that has open dancing every Friday night and a free lesson for beginners before hand. I started with that and now I can do more complicated stuff. Most people who dance are really friendly and are polite to ladies (at least where I go..), its nice to respect and be respected. I'm rambling now lol.
I don't mind rambling.
