I'm too lazy to write my own account of our second Advanced level square dance class intro night, so I'll just hijack yours.
I think it was very cute the way you were doing a grand jeté during the Grand Right & Lefts. Since I danced the less familiar girl position for most of the evening, it was most entertaining. I also enjoyed being twirled. And twirled. Oh, and the twirling was good.
Michael and Dave were far better this week than the first week, for which I'm thankful. Both callers are clear when mic'd and don't give a hundred alternate explanations for each call (note to callers: it annoys the newer dancers).
More entertaining than anything else (and it was true for the other classes we took, too) were the “experienced” dancers who could do all the difficult stuff but couldn't do a Turn Through. Cracks me up every time.
Having a teaching order will be nice. I agree, I'd rather try to visualize ahead of time. Hey, maybe we could practice together?
