How dancing keeps you young

This year the birthday of fabulous Jo fell on a Wednesday (Crows' rehearsal day), and Sally baked a delicious cake. We raised our glasses after rehearsal to yet another triumphant year ahead.
Jo and Sally aren't old, but they are dancing in the direction of the much documented "young old".
Let me count the ways that Crows Feet dancing—and probably any regular dancing—keeps you young.
Fishnet Tights

For the new up and coming show 'How to be a domestic goddess' we have the option of wearing fishnet tights. Not being one to have ever owned a pair I mentioned it to some of my younger work colleagues, then decided a few days later to work a particular friday from home. I'm now accused of attending the Sevens doing 'interesting' things in fishnet tights!!!
Crows and friends in India!

Two of us attended the WDA-AP (World Dance Alliance Asia Pacific) Dance conference in Delhi in November 2009, also attended by some other NZ dance colleagues. Following this we went on a 10 day holiday led by Carolyn, a member of Crows Feet who not only has a dance school in Wellington but also a bed and breakfast and fashion business in Jaipur.

Jan looked like a particularly fit and gorgeous 40-year-old at a low-stress birthday party last Wednesday night - - agree? Liz offered her home for the event and Sarah did the catering. Verdict on both: fantastic. We counted the Crows in our 60s, and there are seven of us now.*

Jan's 60th birthday is soon, so we'll have a little celebration after our practice on Wednesday.
What a wonder is that woman!
A different pace

Recently I joined a group of friends and had a merry dance thru' some lovely kiwi farm countryside including coastal beaches and some high ridges with brilliant views and fortunately good weather. We were walking the Cape Campbell Walk. It re-enforced how important it is to take time out and enjoy our own backyard and meet some great 'can do' New Zealanders.
