- This dance was first tried ...
This dance was first tried out during a small occasion in Beelen (near Muenster, Germany) in June 2007. We used a small room adjacent to the organiser's house. I subsequently learned that the wooden floor covers their former small indoor swimming pool.
This inspired me to call this dance: “Dancing on Water”.
