The dancer who asked me was really just a regular guy, a pretty nice dancer, but for some reason I got horribly nervous. I thought I was over this. I was so shakey that he commented on it, asking if I was "O.K." God I was soooo embarassed and I feel like a fool. Oh well, keepin on. Does anyone else think that tangueras might just be a little high-strung.?Elizabeth Brintonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13814965814308408209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8485889550613053518.post-77405694797015951402009-10-07T23:56:05.685-07:002009-10-07T23:56:05.685-07:00Seems as if we have all been there at some point, ...Seems as if we have all been there at some point, especially in the beginning. Don't worry, in a couple of more years, you will wonder what all the fuss was about and may realise that who you think is a brilliant dancer now may not be so brilliant in the future for many reasons.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8485889550613053518.post-76190618041639025102009-09-30T11:06:12.629-07:002009-09-30T11:06:12.629-07:00It happens to everybody.

There's nothing ...That's just what happens. There's nothing you can do about it, it's part of the process. I always had a version of that when I used to dance with my first teacher. The way I looked at it was, anything I <i>can</i> still deliver in that situation is something I have truly mastered.msHedgehoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05719152265628932122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8485889550613053518.post-26312706401600785382009-09-29T06:00:30.513-07:002009-09-29T06:00:30.513-07:00I have so been there!

At a milonga a few weeks ago, I suddenly got to dance with someone I had been talking to for ages, a very advanced dancer, and I forgot everything! The whole time I was thinking, 'I'm not on the music. I didn't collect me feet. OMG I just missed a cross lead!?! My dancing is crap!' I think I was literally holding my breath the whole time. ugh... <br /><br />The good news is, from what I've heard, they do it too. I've heard stories like, 'oh I asked this follower I didn't know to dance - and it turned out she was an out of town teacher. Suddenly I forgot how to lead ochos etc etc. It happens to them too. ;)Marihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08960763038363579526noreply@blogger.com
