I'm sure I've said this before but in the Thames Valley area and Newbury, slotting gets hammered home. Its interesting that at TV about half the crowd pay attention, the others just wildly dance in whichever direction they feel like. Nothing too that, they just don't listen or are happy with their style. At Newbury, where Val and Rocky have started up, everyone slots because that's what they are taught from day one, its a delight to go on the dancefloor. Both areas cover spins , slotting and body leads in the beginners lesson as well as prepping your partner to be on the right foot. Its only when you venture outside these areas and get bouncy hoppy tuggy yanky make a circle while you dance people that I understand what the rest of you moan about.
