Doug, I just came to this thread and I have never read your posts or talked to you before, so take this as coming from completely fresh eyes....
Very wise man and a good answer :)
Brendan, You are correct, it is the rotation, as Larinda just posted above. However, I must say I do not know in what kind of pivot turn the...
Just remember, all I have is your story, and it's only my opinion. You must do what you think is best for you. No one on this forum can really...
You can do anything you want. Who's going to arrest you, the ballroom police? For a syllabus competition, what's "allowed" is important. For...
She wouldn't -- it would be on a quick, if quicks are half a beat, and slows are a whole beat as in this case. Many slip pivots (I should say...

This really is a prerequisite for floorcraft -- without knowing what options one has, one really won't know what to do or have any choices. Of...
Looks like just an outside spin to me, with Mirko doing a ronde.
What you're suggesting is very possible, and quite beautiful to dance. But it's even easier, and possibly more common to see promenade maintained...
There is very little "truth" in dancing; more important than right or wrong, is effective and ineffective. What will be effective for one couple...
Are you a new dancer? If so, any teacher will seem awesome, because he knows more than you. Then again, it's possible he really is quite good, in...
I agree with Larinda. For certain figures which are very similar in bronze, like an American twinkle, or the Int'l whisk, it may give the guy...
Thank you all very much for the words of condolence -- I hope those of you there dance great and have a good time!
I had a very, very close relative pass away yesterday and the funeral will be this Saturday the 3rd, when I am supposed to dance, so I have to cancel...
