I have learned the hard way that if you take only one lesson a week and that is all you do for six weeks, then you will never advance beyond novice level--even if you decide to repeat the class for another six weeks, once a week........ Practicing at home in front of a mirror doesn't work, either. Taking lessons and practicing---that is, dancing at least three times a week helps a lot.

To enable him to do this, you need a frame. number two-follow and don't try and lead. Not only is it rude, it's potentially hazardous. three-practice, practice, practice-and not just with one partner. Switch partners often to get a feel for different lead styles. and two don'ts one-don't let the guy get away with bad leading. If he's not leading, tell him. two-don't let a new guy do lifts with you. Develop some trust in someone and take it slow. I've seen too many injuries from bad leaders and over-trusting girls. and that's all I have to say about that
