Dance! - The Road to Heavies: lesson 58, March 20, 2015. At ease for now...
Now the performance is over, we start on soft-shoes like we normal do. I skip the Light Jig: I don't know it too good and also hardly practiced it.
The rest goes pretty well. My teacher emphasizes on turn-out, something I (obviously) am not doing right. It's funny how that sometimes takes so much more effort than others.
It's not a strange problem at all to be honest. When practicing at work, turn-out also differs from day to day.
My fellow beginner is again wearing the old heavy shoes from her daughter, like she has done a few classes by now. She dislikes completely she has such a hard time getting sound 'out' of them, a 'problem' that is all too familiar to me.
The heavy-shoe stuff nearly works out till the end, it is only then I mess up with a step.
