En Action. September 16, 2008.

I got a lot of dancing lately. There is more to come.
Because the lady instructor is out of town, I had a chance to spend more than usual time on the floor with my teacher. It was both pleasant and effective. I believe I finally resolved the "head battle" problem. If I do not arch my back and hold myself straight with a slight forward angle, my head does not tilt, and it is not in the way of his. The posture is the most important thing for me right now.

Last night we had a great group class. The teacher used me to demonstrate. It was wonderful to listen to his instruction and go through the movement at the same time. I wish I could have that more often.

Next challenge for me would be to free my movement, to let the hips go. I control them too much, constricting the movement, cutting the steps short.
