Dangerous Curves

I have curves. I've struggled to dress my body to flatter my pear shape. I've finally learned to work with my dangerous curves. I finally accept that this is MY shape; I've made peace with my body. I encourage other pear shaped ladies to accept and love their shape; it is a beautiful, classic womanly shape. I'm also a ballroom dance lover. I'll share what I've learned about dressing for dance, competition, ballroom glitter, sparkle and glamour.

About Me

My photo
Lisa
Crown Point, Indiana, United States
I'm currently under the influence of testosterone tyranny. I'm Mom to two adult sons (29 and 22), a 7 year old son and my precious 1 year old grandson. I have a B. A. degree in Human Development and am working on a Master's of Science in Human Development/Family Studies with an additional certification in Addictions Counseling. I teach an undergrad class in Human Development as part of a teaching assistantship. I love teaching and my career path may take a turn in that direction. I "retired" as a Paramedic a few years ago but still I teach CPR independently. I hope to tackle program development/research/policy change in human services.......current human services policies do little to serve the community or advance humanity! I've volunteered for a Fire Department and Civil Defense. I have a heart to protect people who are unable to protect themselves. Currently, I volunteer with two organizations (VAS and NIAGS) that advocate and guardian (through the court system) incapacitated adults. My passion is ballroom dance an I compete with my fabulous instructor. Dancing brings me joy and is my buffer and my therapy.
