Dancing the Charleston.
Ellen’s hobbies are music, drama, swimming, yoga and reading. Shane’s hobbies are watching movies and public speaking.
Although Shane doesn’t have much experience dancing, Ellen has experience with ballet classes as a kid and has performed in musicals and plays.
They both knew each other before this event and decided to take part so that they could meet new people, give back to charity, learn a dance from a professional and to have fun!
