I can dance a modern dance, "tango", "chacha" " curacha" but not Rock and Roll. I never had an option bu to commit. Yes, the first time I joined in the university that was in 2010, I was told by our College Dean to be the representative in our college to dance rock and roll by Elvis Presley.

.I was not able to sleep that night. That was our Christmas Party .It was held at Grand Caprice. There were 1,800 admin, faculty, staff and retired board of directors in the university during that party to celebrate Christmas. What I did, I bought a DVD of Elvis and chose one rock and roll song of my preference. I also bought a DVD with rock and roll dances.I practiced and practiced with the DVD.

Oh, my God, the day came and I cannot anymore escape.

, so I danced alone.

Finally, I got lots of fun from my performance as a rocker.LOL.

. Have you also danced during a program in your work place? I mage is me in the dance floor

@sIMPLYD, hehehe bringing a guitar was my gimmick. I used a guitar while dancing as an accompaniment, That was indeed a night of all nights performance hehehe.There are many good rock and roll songs of Elvis.

This is a great image. Rock and Roll was popular when I was very young, but I have never been good with this dance.
