In 2009, Jaime decided to finally take salsa dancing classes.She had gone salsa dancing for fun but never knew the exact steps. At that time, Mike had been teaching salsa for five years in Corvallis. He was the teacher and was flirtatious and funny and silly, and as she left the first day of class, she felt giddy and light. She wondered if it was just because she loved dancing or if perhaps she had enjoyed being around the teacher more than she’d like to admit. The next class he asked her name while they were dancing together, and she knew she was twitterpated. Although it took several years to develop their friendship and evolve into the right partners for each other, it was worth the wait!
