Latin Dance Classes
My name is Sharon Pitto. I am a retired registered nurse and am married and have 2 adult children. I have also been a volunteer with the Arthritis society doing public speaking geared to people living with arthritis, a subject near and dear to me since being diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis in 1981. This disease has taught me to live each day to the fullest and experience has taught me that my disease cannot rule my life. One dream that I thought would never be realized was my dream of doing Latin dancing.
I have always loved music and dancing and decided three years ago to throw caution to the wind and take a Latin dance course. Every day I came up with a new excuse to cancel, I was too old, had to many mobility problems, was too overweight to name just a few. But I did go and was hooked on Latin dancing from the first class. I knew there was no going back, even when it was necessary to have both knees replaced. In my dancing travels, I was fortunate to became friends and occasional dance partners with Clement Pinto. He is a more experienced dancer and is very excited to be demonstrating the men’s part of the dances as I demonstrate the women’s.
I am honoured to volunteer to facilitate Salsa Night at Mind, Body and Soul. I am not a professional dance instructor, but my qualifications are a love of dancing, which I am thrilled to be sharing with all of the participants. Salsa, Merengue, and Bachata are a few of the dances will be learning! I am open to any suggestions. In the future we can take our new dance skills to a Latin club, if there is interest.
Leave your flip flops in your swim bag, wear comfortable shoes that will stay on, clothing that is cool and loose and get ready to dance!
