The Moulin Rouge show in Paris.
“I danced Cha Cha Cha at the Moulin Rouge”
DK Dancer John Keating describes a time when he did the Cha Cha Cha at the Moulin Rouge!
“One of my favorite stories was when I was in Paris with my partner at the time.
We were on a bus tour and the Director asked us if we wanted to go to a show at Moulin Rouge as it wasn’t on the schedule.
He received enough interest to book us in.
We had great seats and enjoying a great dinner and French wine while we waited for the show to begin.
My partner was also a Ballroom dancer.
There was an empty dance floor in front of us and they started playing Michael Buble’s “Sway”.
Well as a fellow dancer you know you cannot sit down to that tune.
So my partner and I stepped onto that empty dance floor in front of 800 people and did a Cha Cha Cha.
As we left the floor people were clapping and patting us on the shoulder.
My Philosophy is :- Never miss an opportunity to show your stuff and dance like no one was watching.
I will never forget the feeling.”
