Waltham Abbey needs better teachers.
I had a double hernia operation over xmas and since then have only been dancing with people i know, or whos style is gentle and do not hurt me. On another note the operation has made me rethink my style and as a result i have been told i am a much smoother dancer, with massive help from trouble as well. So if i have refused you a dance in the last couple of months please ask me again and i will dance with you , hopefully as a better dancer xxx xxx
How about "last time we danced you looked at me in disgust when I told you I was a beginner, so just cause I'm the only woman sitting down doesn't mean I'll dance with you!"
Well, up until now I made it a rule never to always refuse anyone. If I have a reason to refuse, such as shirt change, drink break etc, that's fine. However, I now have the first person for my list of people I will not dance with.
At Ceroc on Monday I picked up a minor injury from a lady who's been dancing about the same time as me, but more often. However she's still a hand-bouncing backleader who cannot stay in time with the music.
Dancing with her is always difficult, but I make it a rule never to refuse without good reason and I always tell her to let me lead.
Anyway, I was in the middle of the man's bit of a catapult and for whatever reason, she decided that yanking on my right hand as I passed under it would be a good idea? It wrenched my back and I had to stop, but I was up and dancing again in no time with no residual pain.
It started to hurt on Tuesday night and got worse through Wednesday so that by the time Tango came around, I wasn't sure if I should be doing it. Thankfully it's easing off again now and may be OK for Southport this weekend.
Having suffered from 24hr back pain for 6 or 7 years, but having been completely pain free for the last 2 years or so means that I'm not taking the risk again.
I refused a megastar this weekend because I was tired and my feet hurt - I was told I was the first female to turn him down ever I am now wondering if I did the right thing
