For her 30th birthday celebration friend and freelancer Ms. Angela invited PilotGirl to New York City's largest Latin and Ballroom studio last night. She'd been practicing the Hustle for months and it was now time for the debut.

Dressed in a killer red number with a doll face painted up by Mac experts at Macy's Angie dazzled a packed house with her new moves. She also won the prestigious Prom Queen title thanks in part to her entourage clapping louder for her than any other couple.

Before Angela took center stage a professional instructor offered up a 30 minute lesson for neophytes like me. My 2 left feet stumbled for rhythm but it was fun and something worth pursuing.

DanceSport is the studio where hundreds every year learn to Salsa, Mambo, Tango, Swing, Latin, Ballroom and much more. It's even where GMA (Good Morning America) anchor Diane Sawyer learned how to tap, kick and step.

You don't need to be Latino to know how to move your body. One of the instructors is 7 feet tall, blond and from Serbia! TV shows like "Dancing with the Stars" have proved that nearly anyone can swivel their hips. Wearing high heels for the ladies might be the only caveat.
