Just wondering if there are any ddr players who are slightly older than the average teen players? Im a 36yo who plays at home with my 2 girls--15 & 6-- and I think Im pretty decent. Ive been playing since Aug '03 and since I also teach aerobics part time its great for extra workout and Im also a dancer. Im not embarrassed to play in the in the arcade with my girls --but I wont play alone! I can do 4-5 footers(light and a little standard mode)...so anyone else out there hobbling to the dance pad on a fri or sat night?? And I also shadow.. but at a distance so not to distract the player--and my 6yr old can play as well as any teen!

Well you've got me. I'm only 26. I've got a friend who I play with who's 28. And I know a few guys quite close to your age. I may be only 26, but I know I'm not your average teen. People like us are truly the exception in this community. I wish there was a place where only the adults could play and didn't have to worry about a bunch teens playing with us. Most of them act so immature it makes me mad. Makes me remember all the dumb things I did as a teen.

Edit: Sorry, but ddr isn't about dancing at all. I don't even know why they call it that. Also, most physically fit people (including myself) would never call DDR a workout. It maybe a physical challenge, but never a workout.

Sorry if I didnt use the right terms

... but I guess as a 'newbi' Im not up on all ddr words so anyway.. I know it helps if you already are a dancer cuz your coordination is better..and i say workout becuz when i do it at home thats what it is for me..I dont know if I'll ever get to the freestylin level anyway!
