Fat women can dance

Even when I was fat I loved to dance. I loved to wriggle that great big body of mine. Now 20 kilos lighter its a bigger joy than ever. I don't know how  I had the gumption to move that big body of mine. It was inside this deep yearning to dance. I am sure had I not been fat this life I would have been a pole dancer. Its not too late I hear you say, but wait I have found the perfect dance. I desired a dance that was sensuous that did not involve spinning.Yes I can salsa, but not like those lightweight girls who can multiple spin. Yes I have other multiple abilities it just is not spinning.
 I desired a dance that allowed my sensuality to flow , to be with a partner who was not a pole and to let it all hang out. I have found that in Kizomba. I have only had three lessons and was hooked from lesson one. Now on my about to be European tour I am thinking of having a detour ( from actual working) to go to dance in Edinburgh. 
The joy that dance brings to me an ex fat now 57 year old woman who believes she is 25 on the dance floor far outweighs any obstacles.

So if you are reading this and are fat go for it . Dance your heart out .

Dance on sisters ( and if there are any brothers reading this to you to)
