<p>COURSE: late-night-blues</p>
|
|
<p>FOCUS: This lesson introduces opposition in late-night blues dancing, where partners move in different directions while maintaining connection without physical contact. The goal is to explore this position while keeping energy focused inward toward each other.</p>
|
|
<p>TIP & TRICKS: <ul>
|
|
<li>Leaders initiate opposition by staying on one side while signaling weight changes to followers.</li>
|
|
<li>Experiment with arm placement to control the openness or closeness of the connection bubble.</li>
|
|
<li>Add subtle hip styling like small backward swings, side swings, tilts, or rotations while in opposition.</li>
|
|
<li>Keep movements small to maintain connection and avoid overextending.</li>
|
|
<li>Use upper body and arms to gently bring partners back together from opposition.</li>
|
|
</ul></p>
|
|
<p>REMEMBER: <ul>
|
|
<li>Maintain a focused connection with your partner as if dancing in a private bubble, even when not in close embrace.</li>
|
|
<li>Opposition creates tension in the air between bodies, preserving a beautiful connection without physical touch.</li>
|
|
<li>The intensity of the move can be adjusted through arm placement and movement size.</li>
|
|
<li>All previously learned moves can be adapted and played with in the opposition position.</li>
|
|
</ul></p> |
