Just take a deep breadth, hold for a count of 2, exhale over 4 counts and repeat until the panic attack is over.Originally Posted by Bigger Andy
Get yourself to a beginners lesson nice and early. Explain what you want to do to the teacher so that they can explain it to the class from the stage just before the beginning of the lesson. Find a tame and friendly follower that has sympathy for what you about to do and start the lesson with them.
then - without being rude to followers - disconnect your leaders brain.
You no longer know the moves. you only know the signals that are coming though your fingers up you arm to your shoulders and into your body to indicate how to move. If you decide that you know the move and then make movements yourself then the whole thing will be destoyed for both you and your leader. If you find this happening then do the deep breathing exercise, close your eyes to shut off visual signals that would lead to you anticipating and do it again.
Stand up straight.
Concentrate on the hand. Reach out with your feelings and use the force Luke (oops sorry, wrong post).
Weather the jibbing.
Then go and find a good follwer and ask them to put you through the same set of moves and try and feel the difference. Reflect on your own leading.
Accept that the first 20 lessons in the followers role is going to be a nightmare (for the leaders as well).
For the first 4 lessons - any free spin that you finish standing up is a success.
Go Andy, Go!!!
