Its Valentine’s Day this Sunday. For those who have someone, congratulations and wish you a happy Valentine's. But have you thought about what you will do for Valentine’s?

 

Roses? Candle lit dinner for two? Box of chocolates thrown in as well?...

 

But doesn’t that feel tired and frankly overused? Instead for this year, why not do something more exciting, fun and sexy than taking your partner out to dance? The wonderful Huffington Post even recommends dancing as an alternative idea to spend Valentine’s Day with your love. In fact, why not even take someone to a Tango or Salsa class or Swing. Dance, especially partner based dance like Salsa and Tango are so rooted in romantic feeling. Both dance forms require close interaction, with the movements being very seductive and steamy. As mentioned recently in a previous blog, it is no wonder both Salsa and Tango are seen as the “lovers dance”. Sounds so much more exciting, don’t you think? Dancing the night away with the love of your life, trying to perform these dance manoeuvres that bringing you closer, following the beats, the rhythm of the music. Does that not sound better than the usual Valentine’s Day activity, which has become such a cliché? I beat you will have the most exciting Valentine’s Day ever.

 

 

 

Which brings us to those without partners.

All the singletons out there, don't despair because you feel left out from Valentine's Day. Have all you singletons thought about going to a dance class to meet the potential love of your life?

Well, you should try it out. It’s the perfect place to meet new, likeminded people, in a friendly and really fun environment. Dance, and this is for men out there especially, it is a great way to meet new people. Many people like to dance, especially women, but continue to find the same old problem – not enough men. As Whitney Houston once sang, all that ladies want is to dance with somebody.

There are many dance events catered for single people, and organisations like the popular and famous dating site, Match.com, run Salsa dance events – a wonderful dance - as an alternative way for those on the dating scene to meet potential partners. eHarmony, another famous and popular dating site, certainly recommends it too – check out their page explaining why dance is the perfect place.

So gentlemen, and ladies too, instead of going to bars and what not, why not go to a dance class and find the love of your life there, and compete for all those beautiful ladies and men out there waiting for you.
