Got another one to add to the list after today's lesson:

Having your pro order you to fondle him because it's the only way you'll really understand what you're supposed to be doing.  You spend the next 5-10 minutes of the lesson with your hands on your pro's hips/butt.

Depends on whether he is a hottie or not Roll Eyes...

Resistance is futile when it comes to my pro.  And yes, he's a cutie for sure--except he's a gay cutie.  Sigh.

Hey, I'm not the one who came up with the idea!

The best part is that you keep pretending that you don't understand him so that you can keep fondling.  Or, perhaps he pretends you don't understand so that he can be fondled.  Oh yeah, I'm bad.  Shocked

LOL, the latter is probably more the case--my teacher's, uh, a unique personality!  Nah, I don't do that kind of thing.  Actually, when I had a coaching with Felipe Telona a few months back, he said that exact same thing about all of the women he coaches that aren't his own students: "I think they purposefully mess up or don't do it just so I'll put my hands on them!"

One of the young female pros at the studio later confirmed this theory. Cheesy Her, doing an impression of herself in a coaching with him: "Oh no Felipe, I guess I just don't get it.  Can you show me again?" *bats eyelashes*

Everything about DF irritates me to no end, let the record show.

Anyway, that being said, What I love about Latin/Rhythm: Watching anybody but myself doing it.

In other news, Chingy's "Right Thurr" is a nice slow samba.

What I love about latin, is that it is not a comp for us. we can go out and really enjoy ourselves without having to perfect. it.. that mentality is what we need to achieve for all our dancing. Roll Eyes
thats the same as me then.... Wink
Anybody care to consult me about the matter

what i love about rhythm - nothing, except bolero.

what i like about latin - everything. man, women, dresses, dances, feelings, music, everything. and especially discipline. it just give me that feeling that i can do anything in the world. i can be a bitch, slut, feminine, sexy, arogant, intelectual, angel, devil, good girl, babe, chicka .................

this is what i like about it.  Grin

maybe because it is different. music is really nice, and it is challenging. i will answer tomorrow much better, i am already sleeping.
