The teacher clapped to the beat of the music in order for the students to dance on the beat. "Pick up the pace!" She demanded. My foot slid across the floor and I aced the step, perfectly in time and all. I got back round to the other side of the room with my partner. We smiled at the teacher and took the preparing step, widening our arms in the presenting position. The step began and as I jumped, I lost my footing and slipped to the floor. Concern covered everyone's faces and then we all burst into laughter. My partner helped me up and I grabbed my butt trying to release the numb ache. My face was red with laughter and slight pain. I went back and did the step, ten times better than before. I continued to laugh at my stumble as the lesson progressed on.
