Hi, Egils, Thank you for the wonderful video. We enjoyed it very much. However, I'm having a little trouble leading two similar moves, the closed promenade vs the promenade link. In the closed promenade, you switch weight on the second S, while you only tap in promenade link. How do I tell my dance partner which one I want her to do?
Hi, Gang, thanks for appreciating our video. About Promenade Link I would suggest that your dance partner can feel that instead of further weight transfer after you arrive on your right foot, you leading her to turn to left on her left foot and then you both tap. It takes of course some practice to lead and respond in that way. Egils
Egils, Thank you very much for your reply. We tried your suggestion. It worked and made all the same sense. We'll keep enjoying your other videos, and hope more are coming. Gang
I always seem to find myself on this channel whenever I am late for my dance lessons :) Really good explanations in a really short amount of time.
when you put these moves to music it is magical
eric thanks!
