Go for it! (Like the music, BTW)

I've always believed in following the heart when it comes to dance.

I'm something of an expert at diving in at the deep end - founded a (now, very successful) Border morris team, with zero experience of Border; then followed that up a few years later by founding a longsword dance team, after once playing concertina for a sword dance performance.

You've had lessons! You're way ahead :) (and there's You Tube now!)
