I met my wife at a college dance. You probably don't have much opportunity to attend many of those. More important than where we met, though, is how.
I am not so good nor interested in most "traditional" forms of dancing, but I love poi and staff spinning. I was spinning poi, she saw me, thought it was cool and wanted to learn, and we set up weekly lessons. She happened to see me at a dance, but it could just as well have happened at a park or any other random place with high ceilings. Weekly poi lessons led to dating, etc.
