Tonight's C2 Class

[bjarvis]

I didn't dance tonight --I was on the telephone through the early part of the evening with work-related conference calls-- but watched the class from the sidelines.

Tonight's new call: hubs/rims trade back. It looks pretty easy but check with me next week when I actually have to dance it. There was a re-teach of the 'disconnected' concept for those who missed it previously. The explanations for how it works for shape-changing calls is a little wonky but I'm sure I'll think of a way of getting my head around it after a little sleep.

The good news is that the end is in sight: barring issues, we should be able to wrap up the remainder of the C2 list in the next three classes (Sept 28, Oct 4 & 19 since we're not dancing Canadian Thanksgiving/Columbus Day). We have the hall until Dec 14 so we'll use the remaining sessions to practice and just dance; I'm hoping to split my time between the Monday C2 sessions and justetthon's Monday C1 dances.

Rims/hubs always screwed me up when I took C2. For some reason, I got the concepts of rims and hubs switched around, and I never could dance it reliably.

Maybe THIS year.

John did a great first run through using a thar star. It was a perfect way of demonstrating it using the wheel analysis and the "rims" and "hubs" were obvious. After doing several moves in that formation, it was easy to see it from a way or a line.

But then, "disconnected" makes perfect sense to me - go figure.....
