Need a refresh for SXSW.  Catch a dance class, http://www.movineasy.com/startdancing

Where are dancers going at SXSW?

I have a serious problem with venues without dance floors.  And I love it when local dancers go out and show the total variety of what dance is from Tap to Flamenco and  Contact Improvisation, along with the social and ballroom dances.  Just not enough space in the intensity of SXSW or not enough brain storming by dancers to get their stuff out there.  see us at http://www.movineasy.com

Superbrain Yoga exercise is dance.  http://homeopathyplus.com.au/superbrain.html  Improves memory and brain function by using a simple crossing of the midline and a plie.  Dancing daily uses both principles in a variety of ways affecting even more areas of the brain.

What is it about touch in a couples dance?  So exciting to see a couple who really touch in their dance, something about the total pleasure of a signal given and received.  The touch can be gentle or firm, sharp or smooth, a lead or a follow.  There is something too about the anticipation, the inhale by both people just before a delicious encounter.

We went through an “I don’t want to go phase.” What do you do to keep Mary excited about dance?

“What I do for my Mary is I watch her class and make specific comments about what I liked and what she did well.  I might even ask her to show me how to do a specific step that is interesting or complicated to me.”

I tried it and I love that because it gives a sense of continuity and emphasises how much my Tiger Lily is learning.  When the learning slows down or she gets tired of something, those moments are ones we both remember.

Best thing about going to dance class with my Tiger Lily(7) is the help I get from the Mom’s and Dad’s to support little dancers.  I learn so much about how to encourage Tiger Lily, how to build on her excitement about dance, how to deal with the times when she is discouraged, and how to  emphasize her strengths that can apply to school and other activities.
