Waltzing class, then puppy love, then bad grades

SHANGHAI, China (AP) - Chinese educators are toning down plans to teach students to waltz after parents said they worried about puppy love and falling grades, local media reported Monday.
The revised dance steps allow students to dance by themselves or in large groups, the Xinhua News Agency said, without explaining exactly how that would work.
"They don't have to dance with specific partners, which will be more easily accepted by both students and their parents," Yin Guochen, an official with the State General Administration of Sports, was quoted as saying.
