The ultimate in partner dancing is to connect and flow with your partner as you dance and express your self with the music without interrupting the flow of movement that you have established with your partner
well said
Thanks so much for the tip about how the follower’s wrists should be positioned. Now I understand why the instructor said I dance like a zombie 🤣
haha, it's those small details hey?
tracing and good energy were my favorite tips, they make a lot of sense
Right on, those are definitely good ones to always keep in mind! -robin
Tracing is the best!
Totally, it's so useful!
I found the tension explanation most helpful and more detailed than I have heard previously, makes sense. thank you
Awesome glad it could help Allison!
Very insightful for me would be tip number 8 "tracing". This has not been explained to me by anyone, but it does makes sense. You can stay close to each other and you always know where the other is.
Totally, it's a simple concept, but super helpful! -Robin
You articulate your teachings superbly.
Thanks so much, really appreciate that! -Robin
I love her hair and her outfit. :) Great video too. The only thing I learned differently is that if a lead is turning you, as follow you don't just turn automatically when he cues you with the prep, but you wait for him to start doing that circular motion. My teacher actually tests his students. He will do a J prep for a right turn and then wait to see if the follow turns herself, which she shouldn't. Different styles.
Yea absolutely. That last thing you want to do as a follow is go into auto-pilot and guess what the lead wants you to do. It's important to wait and react. -robin
Como sempre excelente vídeo com conselhos e explicado com clareza e simplicidade.
Muito obrigado Daniel! 🙏🙏 -Robin
Great tips as usual.
Really appreciate it. Thanks for watching 🙏 -Robin
Great advice, lately I’ve been paying attention to always trace and I think another benefit is that the partner has a greater sense of security.
It’s a small thing that makes huge difference
totally, glad it's working!
ALL of them .ty!
Right on. Glad they could help!
Amazing tips for perfect dance improvement on dance floor.... 🙌
Glad they helped Pravinchandra! -robin
Hi Roben. You are amazing.. Great teacher!!! ❤️
🥺 thank you !
Amazing 🎉 ty
Thanks for watching! -Robin
Great video and a very good explanation for everything.
Glad you liked it! really appreciate the kind words 🙏🏼 -robin
@@thedancedojo i will write down the list so that i have a good overview for my students in my school.
The first tips was such an obvious one no one really talks about.
The “suave” cross body lead looks pretty cool.
I think that not having to turn my partner all the way is a bit of an eye opener. I probably put too much force in it. I’ll keep cause & effect in mind more.
I love the sauve, there's so many variations too. Implementing cause and effect and understanding it was a game-changer for me, so I hope it helps you! -Robin
Oh well this tracing is something that should be more emphasized in courses. Definitely will try it next time, can't wait to apply it in practice. And the tension tip iss also useful. Hmm in fact all the tips are :D
Glad the tips helped Gabor! Yeah tracing is super helpful to maintain that sense of connection with your partner, and also practically so you can transition to the next move seamlessly. Thanks for watching :) -Robin
Tracing.. big hug.. hehe 🤣
Thanks for watching! -robin
Hi Robben, thank you very much for the explanation. Fully understandable. The assumption is that you speak the same language right? Meaning that both have the knowledge about what is happening if there is cause and effect. I could imagine that a beginner would not understand everything only by starting an impulse for a turn or a cbl. Would appreciate your feedback
a beginner will understand if the principles are explained to them but, of course, if they're unaware of the principles then their reaction will likely be not ideal. So yes, in a partner dance your success will be limited by the knowledge you jointly understand. As a student you want to seek good teachers and as a teacher you have to seek better knowledge. -robin
@@thedancedojo Thank you very much for your quick reply!
@@mvriomartinez you bet!
When I dance with the same level partner, I can be relaxed with smiles, however, when dancing with a superior level partner, I start feel a bit nervous and my smiles disappear very easily because of my fear of failing, making some mistakes. I am wondering if the only way I can resolve this issue is to dance as many times as possible with such a partner in order to get used to that kind of circumstance. And in Salsa I need to learn that tracing technique which is much easier in Bachata because the overall movements are slower. I am sure that helps me increase each figure's variations. Thanks for your usual precious advice, Robin!
it's a bit of both. mentally you have to be ok with not being able to impress someone. instead of trying to prove yourself just think about enjoying yourself. that's worked really well for me. -Robin
@@thedancedojo Ok Robin, I'll try to focus more on enjoying it instead of thinking only about technical aspects. Maybe this way my whole body will move much more smoothly. Many thanks!
@@yoidoretennshi777 I think a good method is to practice technique at practices/classes and at the parties just enjoy!
@@thedancedojoOk , I'll follow your advice separating two things completely, thanks again ;)
@Tetsuro Aoi you are putting pressure on your self for no reason. Notice you mentioned fear and there is no such thing because FEAR is basically False Evidence Appearing Real .. so just relax, smile, and enjoy 😉 the dance, no matter who you are dancing 💃🏽 🕺 with ...
and this will become a good habit to have. It’s what I do all the time. 😎

For me I don't like the way jou hold your right hand in the close position jou do. For me holding behind her shoulderblade is the best way. To bring her everywere jou want with a nice connection.
Everyone has different preferences. The most important thing is to find something that works. -Robin
Tracing
That's the magic! -Robin
6:10 oh no he didn't !!

hahaha
Oh my god what she were it’s terrible 🤨
This isn't a very useful or nice comment. But thanks a lot for watching Julia :) -Robin
Julia a little tip ... sometimes is better not to say anything, especially if you don’t have anything nice to say. Find it in your heart to always look for the good in others.
Niceeeeeee!!!! Thanks a lot
Thanks for watching Fabian! -Robin
