Notes on ballroom dancing

1. Ballroom dancing is mostly a mixed dance between men and women, which can easily lead to misunderstandings. Ballroom dancing is inherently a beneficial activity, and one should not sacrifice the happiness of the other half, or even the whole family, just to make one person happy. It is the best choice for the couple to go and return together and participate together.

2. I am busy with housework and resolutely stop going to the dance floor when my spouse or family members are sick.

3. A suitable dance partner who is comfortable, understanding and dancing gracefully is the best situation and what everyone hopes for. Everyone has family matters, and it is inevitable to interrupt dancing and dancing partners, or even stop dancing for a long period of time. Once dancing partners are changed, it should be common sense to adapt as soon as possible after resuming dancing activities.
