Resume dancing

Third day back in Taipei, I found a studio and coaches for both standard and latin and started my first standard class. The class will be based on silver syllubus moves, and I am required to learn both guy's and lady's steps.

The routine I learned today for waltz is:
starting from the long side
natural turn 123 facing DW-> back to LOD
natural spin turn back to LOD(4) -> LOD(5)->wall(6)
reverse turn wall->DC
open telemark wall(4)-> back to LOD(5)->DW(6)
chasse after pp
natural turn
open impetus
weave after pp

I was excited and was able to dance to the routine, but I still need to work harder on my heel turn.

The weather in Taipei is NOTORIOUSLY steaming: the temperature is always 87 above from 5:30 in the morning and a humidity of 70%. One thing bothers me is that when my sisters walk into my room, they always turn the temperature of the A/C up to over 73 degrees.
