SOMETHING FOR NOTHING?

Well I wanted to get some things straight. First, there are the 3% of people that WILL, or CAN pick up this dance without any problem, or extensive practice. And then there’s the rest of us. L Sadly I wasn’t included in that 3%, but I practiced my butt off, and within that same year of starting, I was teaching. Now, I’m not saying that everyone can accomplish that, but what I am saying is that THERE IS NO GETTING AROUND PRACTICING! NONE, ZIP, NADA!!! Even if you ARE like me and can watch a video and pick up moves, YOU STILL HAVE TO TRY IT AND THAT’S PRACTICING. I love that people are interested in the dance, I HATE that people are LAZY with the dance. You are going to have to put in the time sometime, you might as well get it out of the way now. Why be stuck in the same place years later, when you can get it out of the way in about 4 or 5 months? But I get it, that’s too much like right. I love going out dancing, and seeing all the other dancers putting it down. And I love watching those that have started, get better and better. What kills me, is those students that have been students since the beginning of time, and still can’t get their basic together. That’s just lazy. You’re going to have to put in some time to learn this dance, just like everything else worth doing. You put in time to learn to drive, to walk, to talk, to spread the right rumors, gossip, or how to put on make-up. Well here’s something else you’ll need to put some time into learning. Just think of it as a very unique Line Dance. So NO! You’re not going to get this in one visit. No you’re NOT going to get this in ONE lesson. All those folks that you’ve seen on the floor dancing and having fun, yep they put in the practice to get there. Some have worked on their style and moves for years, so they can win contest, yada yada yada, what makes you think that you’re going to take ONE class or one LESSON and suddenly be like them?

Something For Nothing-You want to do nothing, but be able to do everything. Sorry doesn’t work that way in this dance.
