started learning salsa, lessons in partnerwork have primarily focused on the leader. And as a beginner, you concentrate on getting the pattern down; otherwise, when the music comes on, you won’t want to feel the bored stare or eye-roll from the follower. <\/span>We’ve always had more followers (female) than leaders in the lessons for most of the time. Until one day, I’ve noticed the ratio has shifted. So I went to ask my friends who used to attend the same classes: “So, why don’t you guys come to the lesson anymore?”<\/span><\/p>\n The reply that I’ve heard most often is: “Oh, because I feel like I’m just standing there like a practice dummy, I’m not really learning anything. If they lead badly, I can get injured, so I rather not.”<\/span><\/p>\n Hm…Ok, I think it’s a legit statement. At that time, I’ve not been a follower before; I don’t know what they have to deal with. Also, the teachers emphasise the leader’s role more, which seems unfair for followers.<\/span><\/p>\n So some questions spring to mind:<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n To make up for the difference in leader\/follower ratio, I’ve started to attend partnerwork as a follower. \u00a0<\/span>After several years, I’ve noticed followers face tons of challenges in partnerwork, both on and off the lesson. I’ve listed a few below, these topics can be discussed separately in the future:<\/span><\/p>\n Ultimately, I felt that to learn partnerwork is to learn a “feeling<\/strong>“.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Yep<\/span><\/p>\n You’ve heard right…this is starting to sound like total bullshit right here.<\/span><\/p>\n (WAIT!! Before you click dislike and unfollow)<\/span><\/p>\n But if you’ve spoken with other experienced dancers, they all said: “Yeah, some people it just feels nice dancing with them. It’s not like they have the best technique or anything; it’s hard to describe…just a nice feeling.” \u00a0\u00a0<\/span>So what is this “feeling”? <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n I realise that any movement in partnerwork requires both dancers to work together. The leaders actually learn “the feeling of leading the other person” rather than the movement of the pattern. Similarly, followers learn “the feeling of being led a movement” rather than the sequence of a pattern.<\/span><\/p>\n Doing the basic steps on your own is different from stepping with someone else. When you’ve made contact with other people, you share your weight, muscle conditions, mood…etc. (this happens unconsciously, even if you don’t want to). \u00a0<\/span>Another way to describe it is…If you have learnt the right turn, are you turning because you know “it’s now time for me to turn” and you turn on your own? Or the leader is signalling you, “we are about to turn”, and you turn “together” effectively.<\/span><\/p>\n If you only have a good dance with certain individuals. Then this can mean\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Having danced as a follower in the lesson, I’ve started to think on behalf of the leader. \u00a0“How can I help them to execute the pattern that’s being taught today so that it feels right?” \u00a0I now understand why explaining from a follower’s perspective is difficult. \u00a0Feelings are personal, and what feels right for me might not work for you. \u00a0<\/span>Whether your teachers emphasise the role of the leader or the follower. \u00a0The end result doesn’t change. We all still have a common goal in partnerwork: to dance with others. \u00a0You can try to put yourself in their shoes. \u00a0How can you work together to make this dance better?<\/span><\/p>\n I think there are a few points followers can think about:<\/span><\/p>\n Lastly, the one I think is the most important<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a06. What works for me? What feels right?<\/strong><\/p>\n Learning to follow is honestly very hard coming from a leader’s perspective. It has made me appreciate the role of follower even more. Everyone is different, so there are no ‘right ways to follow’ or ‘learn to follow’. To understand that “feeling” for yourself, I recommend dancing with as many different people as possible to expand your experience. It’s also the most attractive trait of this art form.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n So, the question…<\/span><\/p>\n Are followers just practice dummies in a partnerwork class?<\/span><\/p>\n Or<\/span><\/p>\n Are all experienced dancers just practice dummies in a partnerwork class?<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n You are in control 100%<\/strong> \u00a0 \u00a0<\/span>You can just enjoy the dance and not worry so much.<\/span><\/p>\n But if you want to make some changes. Why not have a chat with someone you think might help?
