dance with me...

2nd story: noel

due to shows like dancing with the stars, the popularity of ballroom dancing has blossomed. incredibly enough, i actually met someone who professionally competed with his wife. his name was noel. he and his wife, victoria, who was russian, compete in the latin ballroom dancing competitions around the country. last i had heard from him (a regular customer), he and his wife were planning to dance on a cruise ship for 14 months.

they started this as a hobby and as something they could do as a couple. it ended up becoming a full-time profession. they both love it and i am amazed by it. i love dancing, even though i can't do it. i was impressed by his openness and his love for dance. maybe one day, i'll see them on dancing with the stars.
