raganiI went to the Plough last night, which was fun. I danced the usual dances for everyone with a variety of people. I had a different partner for the three waltzes I got to dance; two of them were people who were still learning to waltz, and who basically asked me to back-lead. They both did well, under the circumstances; the Plough is not the best place to learn to waltz. Even so, it was a delight to dance one of the waltzes with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Afterwards, instead of going to Au Coqulet, a small group of us went to Tuk Tuk Thai. I am not decided if I prefer this overall, but it was a nice change, and I am rather a fan of the pumpkin curry they serve there. It is not really the kind of food I usually want that late at night, and I did miss my favorite drink from the Au Coq. It is just too late to have a Thai iced tea.
Years ago I went to several ballroom dance classes that were not simply before an event, but held weekly in a dance studio of sorts. It was nice to have the time to focus on the dance steps and really get a good understanding of how to dance without the complication of being at a social event. Since it has come up recently, I wanted to ask those in the dancing community what good ballroom dance classes are out there currently that are in the area (east bay and SF)? I am especially interested in finding which ones would be recommended for dancers who are fairly new to ballroom, but have some other dance background.
