[Callers] What are they thunking? (was Re: Hand Turns & Safety)

[John Sweeney]

At the last Style & Technique workshop that I ran at Chippenham Folk
Festival, one of the key areas that I focussed on was finishing a flourish
with both dancers facing in the correct direction, and on time.

One guy failed completely.  When my wife danced with him during the lesson,
and pointed this out, his attitude was that he liked the way he danced and
had no intention of changing it.

He seemed completely oblivious to the fact that he made all the ladies late
for the next move, and that they didn't like that.

I have no idea why he bothered coming to the workshop in the first place!

            Happy dancing,			
                   John
