<p>COURSE: Ballroom Blues</p>
|
|
<p>FOCUS: This lesson introduces the Close Embrace technique in ballroom blues, focusing on achieving a comfortable and connected dancing hug through proper posture and relaxed arm placement.</p>
|
|
<p>TIP & TRICKS: <ul>
|
|
<li>Maintain an upright posture with weight centered in the middle of the feet for better connection.</li>
|
|
<li>Keep arms relaxed and light, resting on your partner without clamping down or squeezing.</li>
|
|
<li>Look over your partner's shoulder with a straight neck to avoid head dropping and tension.</li>
|
|
<li>Use a 'deflate button' on the chest to release tension if you or your partner feel too stiff.</li>
|
|
<li>Imagine being slightly melted chocolate bars that squish together softly when connecting.</li>
|
|
</ul></p>
|
|
<p>REMEMBER: <ul>
|
|
<li>Connect based on your own posture and height, adjusting naturally to size differences without compromising form.</li>
|
|
<li>Avoid connecting heads to prevent discomfort and maintain a nice open V position for ease of movement.</li>
|
|
<li>Ensure both partners are balanced independently, not relying on each other for support during steps.</li>
|
|
<li>Keep shoulders relaxed to prevent tension from creeping up into the hands and arms.</li>
|
|
<li>Practice with a forward connection into your partner, maintaining posture even when stepping back.</li>
|
|
</ul></p> |
