Isn't it strange. I had to think quite hard about this because I try to move to the music rather than 'do moves'. So if there's something that I feel fits the music I will do that.... so I had to think what sort of stuff I find never seems to fit any music I dance to. The Pretzel is right up there as something I can't recall doing. The Archie Spin, oh and that move where the guy ducks and spins around to swap the follow's hand from one shoulder to another.
Being a lead it is easier, we get to select the moves, so things we don't like we just don't have to lead. I often try out new stuff and I am always eager to get feed back. There is a new little spinny flicky thing I started working out I call it "Simon" and when I asked Twirlie about it she said there was a part that sometimes took her off balance. I was able to adjust Simon by adding a small pause to allow the follow to gather themselves slightly and now Simon feels smoother, more fluid and more leadable... thanks Twirlie
As for things I love........ easy.... all the ones I use. If you want to know what they are, ask me for a dance
