I hate it when people say ‘oh, have you not been dancing long’, when you are trying really hard and thought you was doing ok😢 totally destroys your confidence.
That is a horrible thing to say ! Tune them out 💓
@@susanhargreaves1436 I had a girl during a social class say when I walked up (she had never seen me before) "lemme guess, your a beginner". So I left her like one. Then led the follow beside her in double spins. I was an out of towner so I didn't clap back like I would like to.
When they say they only dance Cuban so you switch to Cuban and they can't dance that either.
@ianproctor427 🤣🤣🤣that's funny and true 👍
😂
Made me laugh a lot! It's one of my pet hates as well.
@@mambocollective 😅😅must be more common 🤣
Or they say they dance Cuban because they took Rueda classes.
same with "actually I dance Dominican bachata" 🤣
Girl! You are spot on! I’m a female ballroom teacher of nearly 50 years! I’ve heard every one of the dancers’ tales of woe you mentioned more times than I care to think about!
Here are some of my favorites:
‘You’re leading!’ (When I’m following)
‘I’m taking the summer off’
‘There’s not enough men’(when there’s single men present at the dance’)
‘I’ll come to the dance, but not the lesson’
‘I (we) know enough (fill in the dance) so we’re discontinuing’
‘Are you teaching the basic (fill in the dance)? (I don’t know if they WANT basic, or DON’T want it because they think they don’t need it)
Sorry for rant…I have more also!
Let’s do a ‘things teachers LOVE to hear' some time to offset their
remarks!
Dance on Lady! From a fellow instructor in sunny Buffalo NY😊!
@@Karenforyourdancing love you rant , I know exactly how you feel 😅
Please can you teach us how to distinguish styles of salsa and bachata music! No one seems to be able to put it into words for me 😩 but maybe you can play examples in your video - thank you!
@iw00 sure I can. It's a great idea for a video 😇.
@@DanceWithRasathank you!
I’m learning alot from your videos. Thanks for sharing 👍🏾
@myronblack8197 that makes me so happy 😊
Fully understand point 3, I was that intimated dancer. Let me explain: as a Beginner we fear bothering teachers. In my experience majority of teachers were not bored… be brave and invite teachers !
@ivonebalcas6896 Absolutely, the teachers are there for you 😀.
Nice video after a nap 😅.
Yes, I'm intemidated inviting teachers... but still doing it anyway 😊
You can do it!😇😇😇
I’m 172 cm tall and I almost never wear high heels. What bothers me the most on the dance floor is when leaders comments that I'm a challenge because of my height, as if it’s a problem I can change. It’s a remark I hear all too often, and it’s quite discouraging.
@radjarania that is really annoying, we need to adapt to people we dance with. They need to adapt too 😉. It's definitely not your fault 💓 .
I feel you 😓 (177cm)
@@olivianeukomm7995 it's ok , dancing is for all , we just need yo learn how to adjust to each other 😇
I hate when people say "let's dance bachata" and the song is a bachata inspired remix with John Legend as the singer.... #MakeDominicanBachataGreatAgain
Love yr comment 👍
😅😅😅
Now I'm going to have to ask you to dance the next time I see you. There'll still be the fear, but now I think I'm being cheered on to do it.
@realjanuary please 🙏 I really meant what I said 💓.
totally agree with the first point!!
😉😉😉
Followers comment on the first point: yep but not ANY classes. Pick ones where leader and follower technique get an equal amount of attention from the teachers.
@@natalijar5989 that's also a good point 😉
I included in my rant some remarks about my teaching 😮
@@Karenforyourdancing 🤣🤣🤣
Question: what other musical bachata styles are there apart from dominican? I often read "sensual is a dance style, not a music style", but what do you call those sensual songs like from people like Mr. Don, Roman etc. then? And what is the style called from Royce, Romeo and Aventura?
@djjackata8756 so sensual songs are usually remixes, others moderna but we dance sensual to it too. And Dominican are from traditional artists.
@@DanceWithRasa nowadays many sensual songs are not remixes. They sound like the remixes, so they are the same style imho
@djjackata8756 that is true too 😇
I’m glad the picture is up at last. You are the best at dancing with everyone and people are missing out not asking you. Who wouldn’t dance with amazing rasa. I had a person say to me at a dance holiday. Check out any bad dancers on the dance floor before you start and avoid ! I couldn’t believe it made me mad. Anyhow have a great night hope to ask you to dance soon ❤
@@evertondod firstly thank you 😊 and secondly, that person is shocking 😲
I was told: "you should have done this/that.. ok girl, one day maybe you will learn it", the leader was leading really bad (most of the time I had no clue what he´s trying to lead) and I was upper advanced which he didn´t notice (I was not showing off till this moment, after his comment I started :-D )
@@Marketka19 🤣🤣🤣
Lovely Rasa. From my perspective, I would not say it’s intimidation but rather giving you the space to dance with those at your level. You spend countless hours teaching us mortals, but during free dance you deserve the time and space to dance with the gods. Otherwise, you’re a bird in a cage. x
that's what I was thinking too 😅
I feel quite similar with inviting teachers for a dance, but I still ask them for a dance when I have the opportunity 🤗 and when I succeed God help me 😅 (this "opportunity" moment is difficult to find as when they are free, I might be dancing woth someone else and other way around) - I'm usually in kizomba/urbankiz rooms where the dance doesn't finish after one song, so to cath thi opportunity moment is rare.
You are very kind, and it's appreciated ❤️ but if I'm tired, I'll take a break or say I'll catch you for the next dance 💃. So ask away 😉.
That's very considering 😉.
I understand, but let the teachers figure it out. You'd like to dance, you ask them 😉. They can always take a break and come back to the dance floor when they are ready 😉.
On point no. 3, Do you have a tendency to backlead if you think the leader is making a mistake? Some people feel embarrassed when corrected on the dancefloor.
No I do not , I follow and smile and play around ☺️
To be fair for point 3... There was an old post on Edie the salsa freaks page about "Sacrifice dances":
Good dancers (implied follows) should dance with beginners and intermediates once in a while to show acceptance even though they know the dance is going. To be bad. Just smile and accept it and know that one day they might be good enough to dance with again.
As for ASKING the good dancers, she advices at MOST once a month to ask a good dancer.
I read that blog before getting officially into salsa . That has formed my mindset and tbh some of the big hubs have good dancers with that attitude.
Very good advice 👌
@@DanceWithRasa oh.. I think it's BAD advice lol. If you dance with beginners the whole time, you gonna stay beginner. You gotta dance up. And I never think (oh this person asking me to dance asked me more than once a month".
To me, reading that stuff can cause.an insecurity complies, if you are already insecure (like me).
I think this is horrendous advice 😂 if I had listened to this I would never have got anywhere with my dancing.
I dont do it all the time but generally, I try and dance with people of all levels not just "once in a while"
@awilliams7796 and that's hoe you suppose to be , keep on dancing and less worry about what people say 😉😁
Stack of potatoes 😂😂😂😂
I ment sack of potatoes 🤣🤣🤣
"I'll just follow you"
💓💓💓
Unfortunately, with level intimidation it doesn't work like that, it's anxiety and self consciousness that is often internalised. It's not outward or personal. Also, they don't want the pressure to dance with an advanced dancer and they won't enjoy it either. However, it's unlikely that someone will actually tell you that is the reason he isn't asking you. More likely he just doesn't ask you. Also I doubt you will have a shortage of good dancers asking you 😊
@@dadada486 I understand, I just want to encourage people to feel comfortable to ask me 😉😇
@@DanceWithRasamaybe you can do a video on level intimidation for both leads and follows... Since it is so common 🤔
@dadada486 sure, on the list 😁
Can confirm that Rasa really does make the effort to work the room and get everybody up, even (maybe especially!) us timid ones.
She's really approachable and friendly :-).
@KENEJ2005 that's very sweet, thank you for this comment 😊
I would love to dance with you Rasa, I just don’t know where to find you. As a beginner/improver it’s often difficult to get a teacher to dance at my classes because they head off home when the social begins. 🤷🏽♀️
I never head off, I always stay to dance 😉
That third point is a little tricky, but there are solutions. And the solutions should be communicated in a decent way. I used to experiment or try things on the spot etc. But for you (and for me), if one hears a beautiful piece of music and gets the urge to express it with movements why not to do it alone. Zorba "The Greek" danced alone to that wonderful music.
Absolutely, very good point 👉
I agree with everything
🤗🤗🤗
You look gorgeous
Oh thats you so much 🤗
Every son{salsa} music is Cuban music.
Yes it is 😉
❤❤❤❤
🤗🤗🤗
There is not much one can do about the 3rd point. But I would never say that to a teacher or artist personally but as mentioned it may be sighn of vulnerability which means they trust the person they say this too.
I can understand the point 1 but personally I can't think of anything that bothers me unless it's a girl I am intrested in pretending to be more innocent than she is, its SBK none of us are really innocent..lol
But that's because I spent 90% time from the socail camp, the Dancing camp is some what different, the comment about music may be example as I never paid to much attention which genre personally, iz either gd, bad or not so pretty.
@@gogokizomba6903 fair enough 👌
I think you should give context around comment number 3. Do you mean to say that on the social dance floor men will literally come up to you and instead of asking you to dance they say "I'm too intimidated to ask you" or do you mean they mention this during after-class conversation? Regardless, this may trigger you but please understand that people saying this are being vulnerable with you, sharing their insecurities. I don't see a problem with people staying within the boundaries of their comfort zone. If they wish to explore outside of that zone it should be for their own benefit, not ours.
@acpjr just in conversations. Sometimes, they say it when I ask them to dance. It's not a horrible thing, I understand it's a vulnerability, but it's one that is based on irrational fair related to me 😉. You know being excited or nervous is ok, not to ask me to dance , I say too much 😁.
Comment most hated: first comment!
@@gonzalogarcia-atance5840 definitely for me 😉
