𝐖𝐎𝐎 𝐇𝐎𝐎!!! - So it began (as promised) with an easy start (although students may not agree)😁 . . . but we did say that these are going to be “𝙜𝙚𝙩 𝙗𝙖𝙘𝙠 𝙞𝙣 𝙨𝙝𝙖𝙥𝙚 𝙒𝙤𝙧𝙠𝙤𝙪𝙩 𝙎𝙚𝙨𝙨𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙨 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙎𝙩𝙮𝙡𝙚”.😌

𝐅𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤 / 𝐀𝐧𝐬𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐬 / 𝐄𝐧𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬:

𝟏. We agreed that until the Covid concerns have better stabilized - 𝐂𝐂 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐩 𝐒𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐮𝐞 𝐨𝐧 𝐒𝐔𝐍𝐃𝐀𝐘𝐒 𝐎𝐍𝐋𝐘 for the time being - 𝘼𝙡𝙡 𝙤𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧 𝙘𝙡𝙖𝙨𝙨 𝙨𝙘𝙝𝙚𝙙𝙪𝙡𝙚𝙨 𝙬𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙗𝙚 𝙥𝙤𝙨𝙩𝙥𝙤𝙣𝙚𝙙 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙣𝙤𝙬!

𝟐. We also agree that Covid will be with us for a while (the proverbial “new normal”) and that our rebranded 😌 “𝐂𝐨𝐯𝐢𝐝 𝐑𝐞𝐡𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧” Programme is one option to “𝙨𝙖𝙛𝙚𝙡𝙮 𝙚𝙖𝙨𝙚 𝙗𝙖𝙘𝙠 𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙤 𝙡𝙞𝙛𝙚” . . . and get that workout you have been longing for (𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙢𝙖𝙮𝙗𝙚 𝙣𝙚𝙚𝙙𝙞𝙣𝙜!)😜

𝟑. We encourage you to participate with all necessary precautions, . . . and with confidence that our Workshops Series Programme & Structure also accommodates these considerations.🤩

- So we go for our 𝗖𝗖 𝗟𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗦𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗜𝗜 (Bachata Styling) 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝐒𝐔𝐍𝐃𝐀𝐘 with the hope / expectation that all will go well to allow it! . . . 𝐒𝐨 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐎𝐫 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭!⁉️😎

So we have been learning from our students just as much as they have been learning from our B&L Dance Crash-Course and Dance Classes in general, . . . more importantly, we have been made aware that our "FREE-STYLE Dance Programmes" seem to now be categorized as it's own “Teaching Style”.Ballroom & The Passion of the Argentine TANGO.

Although this is a new concept to get our heads around (since all tutoring should at least follow some standardized technical or structural process), as we learn more from these shared class experiences, we are further amazed by the Eureka expressions when a previously learned dance sequence (or dance move) suddenly comes together, particularly for the more active dancers (i.e., those that have been dancing and attending other classes for some time).

Getting to the point. . . after learning so much from our students and their feedback, we can now concede that we do have an apparent Teaching Style, so I thought I would at least try to highlight some key elements to our approach and philosophy to our Dance Tutoring & Classes:Message or Chat with us LIVE!
1. Learning fundamental technique is more important than learning a sequence of steps or moves;
2. Fundamental technique begins with understanding Music, Rhythm & Timing . . . “what are you hearing and dancing to?”;
3. Ensure that you and your dance partner enjoy dancing even more than you enjoy the music . . . (no easy feat when you believe that you have to think about the myriad of sequences, steps and moves! . . . an approach that is diametrically opposed to our now conceded “Teaching Style”);
4. Learning to Dance (our)“FREE-STYLE” FORMAT(‘Teaching-Style’)is about understanding 5 tenets - Rhythm, Timing, Execution, Lead & Follow.Aficionada Dance Shoes Gear & Apparel.

We believe, wrapped-up in these four (4) elements & five (5) tenets, are the key to learning all the various dance styles, moves and sequences to allow a fun experience and enjoyment for both you and your dance partner.

Injecting the missing ingredients . . . we appreciate that the thought of “starting over” is a bit nerve-wracking, and although we can literally lay 100’s of “new moves” and "dance sequences" on our students, we are less likely to take this approach until the above elements & tenets can be appreciated and exploredby new (& old) dance enthusiasts, beginners or experienced dancers.

That being said, our class philosophy and focus is on ensuring that students have fun learning to dance and even more fun dancingin the first instance . . . and then can confidently enjoy dancing and executing all the new stuff they learned . . . so come join the fun . . . Cheers! - ABDA Admin.

Thank You All for making it Memorable!

To you our patrons and attendees whose feedback and enjoyment have been overwhelmingly positive and gracious! . . . and to the hard working crew who balance work and play . . . With LUV from ABDA!
