What aspect of your dancing are you working on?
Timing. Leading with more than hands. Posture. Moving arround the dance floor. Using 'tilt' in my leading. Minimising foot movement...
What do you want to change about it?
Timing: change the emphisis so that the each beat is still marked, but the gap between them is changed to smooth or sharpen some movements.
Leading: I want to be able to lead from any point of contact with my partner.
Posture: stand up straighter and have more association between my upper and lower body.
Moving: Not be anchored to 'my spot' on the floor so much: use the space and dance into new spaces.
Tilt: instead of simply using horizontal and vertical leads in three dimensional space, I want to include some 'tilting' to reduce the ammount of horizontal lead needed.
Feet: trying to eliminate shuffling and positioning steps by being decisive about where I should be and where my partner should be. Placing the feet rather than simply allowing them to stop me from falling.
How are you going about getting better?
Practice, observation and self-analasys.
What would help you improve faster?
Practice. More dancing.
