PRACTICA GUIDANCE:
GOAL - LEARNING FROM YOUR PEERS AND FEEDBACKS
PREPARATION
- bring things you want to work on, this is practice, not a class.
- Best if you can discuss with your peers and find someone to train with to ensure that it’s productive 2 hours.
TRAINING PARTNERS
- No need to be one partner, best to train with different partners at different practica to be able to adapt to social dancing.
- Everyone will have different things that you are working on.
- Leaders generally will work on moves
- where I suggest the followers to focus on their foundations during those moves, how to improve your footwork, your own connection and your own styling.
- If you not sure what you can practice, our progressive course will provide you a good guidances to things that you should focus on to help develop a good fundation
PROVIDING FEEDBACK
- the one giving the feedback can be either leader or follower, understand that this is the way you like to lead or follow. Samples:
- "I feel this is too... for me"
- "during this movement I was a bit confused" "This move doesn't feel comfortable for me"
- "I feel there was no connection here and here"
- "I feel like I was leading this, but not sure to why it happened like this"
RECEIVING FEEDBACKS
- it's not personal, it's to build your tools to cater for more wider range of knowledges when you social dancing
MUSIC
- We’ll play DJ playlist as background music
- If you have a particular playlist you wish to request, or if there is a particular song you like to be practicing for a bit, please let us know, we are happy to put it on
