    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!

    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?

    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

      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.

    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.

    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 😊

    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.

    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.

    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.
