Beginners - well I've always asked them and asking the more experienced women who I'd sort of avoided up to now makes the evening unpredictable - but in a good way.
But there is one group that I haven't really had the nerve to ask to dance yet. Yes it's the hot shot women dancers (the ones that don't take part in the lessons, sit in a group off to the side of the stage etc) I had my first refusal a few weeks ago with someone on the edge of that group (her privilege I know, she can dance with who she wants to, she might have been tired etc etc - but she probably thought I was rubbish) and it is a bit depressing when it happens to you.
So how do you ask them to dance? Should I even try - risking irreperable psychological damage in the process?
