We have 1 hour lesson a week.  One week we do NV and the next week we do standard.  Its all we are prepared to pay.  Grin mm

we just discussed this after our comp - to advance at this stage I think we need more lessons.  DP agreed and we will take one private a week and also go to a supervised practise evening...

Supervised practice evenings sound like a really great idea.  We don't have them over here.

My practice/lesson varies enormously anything from 1 - 4hrs.  If I'm not focused I just end up practicing bad habits that I am trying to break  Roll Eyes

yes I worry about that too, having unsupervised practices...as I think you can reinforce bad habits, but that is the advantage when having regular lesson, so they can pick it up quicker.

Its still movement and helps many ways such as improving your ballance and coordination so its still beneficial...

I find my focus can drop, sometimes I need a break for 5-10 minutes and then go back to it...

good partners are hard to find... so maybe there would be another aveune... We have the two privates and one group...which is part of a social....at the moment it is enough as we then go and practice what we learnt in the lesson...but down the track when we have two incomes who knows, the more the merrier I say  Tongue
