As an elderly coot (75) I have to admit that some of the more complicated steps are difficult, especially when arthritic joints complain, yet my bride and I are members and generally go to the weekly practices, and are part of the special occasion dances. Lots of fun, and nobody complains about my lack of skill. Some things I just cannot do well, the pas de basque, for instance, yet that isn't going to stop me from having fun! For those who have never seen HCD, I can only say that it is refined square dancing (which I understand is a child of it) So quit thinking that everybody is looking at you and jump right in! (We have a joking "other right hand" when one of the lefties reaches out)
