Funny co-incidence, but I've noticed that the Followers also tend to keep their Leaders off to their right in the majority of moves.
Remember, that old saying:-
a good Follower lets her Leader think he is leading.
Now, where am I to put my watch, money, dangley (dangly?) ear-rings, etc?
I've been happily putting my keys and wallet on the right because I dance so many (semi-forced) moves where the lady is pulled-in on the left. I don't usually have hip contact on the right ... maybe I should
I'm sure thefts at venues is on a different thread, but it seems pretty commonplace down South. I suspect if you put your car key in your dance bag, your insurer would say you didn't take reasonable care of it.
Keep your friends close, and your possessions closer.
There is a warning about theft from venues in some of the emails from Ceroc London. The emails recommend using the cloakroom to store valuables - fine if you're at a venue that has one and trust them, but most of the venues where I dance (outside that area) don't have cloakrooms.

Love dance, will travel
I don't have anything in my pockets when I'm dancing. If it doesn't poke my partners, it'll annoy me so I don't do it.
However, when not dancing, a man-bag seems like overkill for a wallet, key and mobile, and what else are those wallet-sized pockets for?
Wallet & phone I try to leave at home or locked somewhere in the car (I might pocket one credit card)
Car keys - left or back trouser pocket (or if wearing combats, something I can zip up)
Very often I wear a jacket while dancing - can put a wallet or keys in an inside pocket.
I'm very careful to keep my right trouser pocket(s) completely empty. Partly because of connection reasons Caro's mentioned, and partly because ladies don't seem to like it when one jams a key into their legs. Fussy creatures
I'm gonna substitute an "E" for the "I" - to make it "merengue"
Each time I've been reading the word in the thread I keep thinking of dudes dancing in desserts or something!
quite right - I meant side to side lean, which one can do both sides, and got lost in the description at the reminiscence of the key-engraved-in-my-side-part
ha sorry - must be bad spelling week
It drives me nuts (ok it doesn't take a lot) when I re-read my posts, usually 16 minutes after posting and notice some horrific spelling / grammar mistakes...
