Lesson schedule at <a href="http://www.mndance.com">www.mndance.com</a><br><br>As we've been discussing the reasons for people leaving tango lately, I've learned that there is a lot of people who are teaching their partners on the floor, during milongas and even during classes. It is so tempting to share what you know! But unless you can lead and follow well, you may be giving the wrong information. Besides, I have learned that teaching is an art, and one that must be learned and practiced over many years. Information given the wrong way or at the wrong time in a student's development can actually make them a worse dancer. I'm sure this is not anyone's wish. Oh, yes, and most importantly, the person being taught hates it!! Even if they are smiling and nodding politely. So next time you are tempted, remember:<br>
1. It won't help<br>2. It may make things worse.<br>3. He or she hates it<br>4. He or she may never be back<br><br>For those of you who have left because you've been criticized on the floor: Forgive us! We're sorry, we won't do it again, give us another chance!<br>
