Cha-cha-cha
Feb. 11th, 2004 12:11 amWell, the shower called, but Ruebin's "help yourself to my extra birthday cake" sign in the third floor lounge called louder. Mmmm, caaaaaake... *eats cake, takes shower*
We learned a fabulous, long, relatively simple (i.e. I can do it! And it's bronze syllabus!) cha-cha combo at ballroom tonight. The reverse turn is tricky to do at that speed, but other than that I can actally do it all. Excellent. Unfortunately, the great breakthrough I made in my cha technique last semester has completely deserted me and I'm back to doing it my old crappy way. Sigh.
We also went over the tango fan (which I always want to call the butterfly--I guess because the couple doing it makes sort of a butterfly shape. They're side by side, both facing out, and the lead has his right arm raised/out, while the follow has her right arm in that position). Good stuff.
