Yes I do trot off if I hear certain tracks!! Not if I'm with a partner I like though. At RB I think we carried on and danced to the 'Telephone Song' didn't we??:worthy:

Being a Zebra I like horses for courses. The man and his favourite song, that is truly an honour (even if it's one I don't like that much). That's the beauty of it......I can grow to like it.

I do gallop away from certain tracks:
'Reach', 'I won't change you', and 'Golden Balls'.
You won't see me for dust,even if it is your favourite.....:rofl:

You won't see me for dust, I don't recognise a single one of these, I hope that means they MUST be bad.

They are bad for me, but I'm sure somebody likes them. 10 year old girls like 'Reach' 'cos it has a dance to go with it, and Mrs Beckham must like 'Golden Balls'....How lucky of you not to have come across them...I hope it stays that way

I tend to hold the move with a little wiggle or something, just till my partner gets back on beat again. If he persistently dances off-beat, which the odd one or two do, then I generally say with a smile "oops we're a bit off-beat" hold the move a fraction to get back on track, then they usually get the message.:blush:

Yes, i was going to say that also - slowing down a move by being a little more forceful than usual does the trick! Or perhaps just letting go of the handhold altogether.....but then the man usually disapproves thinking your a bad follower!!:rofl:

Actually, come to think of it, i have been prone to dancing out of time :what: - i always found myself dancing on the off-beat when doing the Rhumba (don't know why) - when i competed with my sister, and i was the man, i always looked over to my teacher to count me in.... :blush:

And Bardsey, have you never heard of the 80/20 rule. It states that its the man's fault 90% of the time, or is that for 90% of the men it's always their fault? Or is it 20% of the time our partner would rather be some where else? I don't know, I've probably got it wrong. :wink:

I tend to hold the move with a little wiggle or something, just till my partner gets back on beat again. ...Early on in my dance career there was a lady "built like a Godess" who had a personality that I hated. She had a wiggle to die for. I found that I could not dance with her. I kept making hesitating, making mistakes, and going off-beat. I watched her dancing with other leads, guys and girls, and they had no problems, so I knew it was me. Eventually I noticed that the wiggle factor was not there for other leads. I worked out that she was using the wiggle as a fill-in whilst I tried to get my act together.

One night I was walking home from a jam session when the revalation hit me. It was a case of Pavlov's dog. If every time I made a mistake I was rewarded by a wiggle, I was subconciously reacting by making more mistakes. Personality clash there might have been, but there was also a sexual chemistry thing going on as well.
