bolsonMonday night for the first time ever I taught a swing dance class and was paid for it. It's like I'm a real instructor now. The next time someone asks me if I teach (it happens every now and then) I can say yes.

omegabeth who coordinated the whole thing, getting me a venue and participants. Also my wonderful girlfriend and dance partner was awesome and did at least as much talking as I and I think she really took to helping out the dancers, watching and giving tips.
What did we do? Week one of a six week course. Weeks 1 and 2 will be "East Coast" style. 3 and 4 Lindy Hop. 5 and 6 mixing it all up and adding more.
The only down side is the commute. It took us 1.5 hours to drive from Kendall Sq to Mosaic Commons. If anyone knows a better way other than Memorial Drive -> Western Ave -> 90 -> 495, I'd like to hear it.
