Mainstream square dance class #3

Class #3 last night went very well, much like the prior classes.

The new dancers continue to absorb everything they're given like a sponge. I was afraid [livejournal.com profile] kent4str and I would still be brain-dead from this past weekend's C1 sessions but we were actually in reasonable form overall.

This class, we covered:

  • lead right/left
  • bend the line
  • partner trade
  • grand square
  • star thru
  • walk around the corner/see saw

Now that they're comfortable with the dance space and each other, we're making the breaks between tips closer to five minutes in length rather than ten. I think we're far enough along to implement singing calls next week although we may push it one more week.

The new dancers voted and have opted for a class on Columbus Day next Monday so we can't attend [livejournal.com profile] justetthon's C1 club night but we'll find another window some time in future.

I agree with you on this one - and the chocolate too, of course! : )
