We continued to take lessons and dance at least 2 times every week for 10 years till we moved to The Villages. Now no lessons but we are still dancing 2 times a week or more. It's a great way to make friends too!
We tried this for our wedding. We took private lessons wit a male teacher. Unfortunately, the teacher told him he had no rhythm and kept saying, "if she can do it, why can't you?" Needless to say, that didn't help his fear of dancing. I think he's just outgoing in different ways.
