I discussed this topic with a non-kilted friend last night. His wife loves to dance and knows how to do it. He, being a willing soul, did his best to learn. They signed up for classes from the local continuing education program at the University. They made it through two or three classes before his wife had had enough of the instructor who was more interested in exhibiting his talent and skills than on teaching others.

Our conversation did give my friend ideas about what to give his wife for Christmas.
