On Saturday I was (trying to) dance with everybody. A couple of the best challenged me with their intermediate moves, and I enjoyed re-remembering their individual styles.
However there was a guy who had only been for two classes before he came that night. When he was asked to dance he got up with shy enthusiasm and although he only remembered a couple of moves it was lovely to enjoy a relaxed and very in time and connected dance with him.
All I can say is that I have serious respect for the bravery it took to come, and that if he continues (I hope I didn't scare him by asking for a second dance later on ) and keeps his connection and his smile then we will have a lovely lead in the making.

I was also thinking ahead to the months and years to come. The wider variety of "tools" you have, the easier you'll find it when someone starts muttering about "light and shade", "developing your own style", "dancing in crowded places" etc. So if you're going to start doing intermediate moves, going for a variety will probably pay bigger dividends in the long run.
