[lcooke]

You've got an awesome style! Real old-time :)

[moonshineV]

thanks for the encouragement....at that time I had been dancing ~4 months, and improving daily...however now, 2 mos later, in a kinesthetic rut.

[lcooke]

Only 4 months!? :O Are you self-taught?

[moonshineV]

@lcooke yep, I had a lot of help in 2D (DVDs and YouTube vdo, etc), but its mainly about feeling the music. 'n you?

BTW, flatfooting has important health benefits, if you can get past the knee pain from overdoing it: good cardio, osteoporosis, and spider vein prevention, etc..., in all a healthy habit no matter how well you do it. if you do it regularly

[lcooke]

I took a week-long course at an old-time festival and tried to keep it up, but it's hard to do on your own. I'm taking a tap course right now to try to get my feet moving again ;)

[moonshineV]

In Berea? Tap course is a great idea to get comfortable moving in and controlling sound/volume in taps. and controlling weight balance prior to transitions.

[moonshineV]

Also, tap course (and daily practice) develops needed muscle groups. Try summer festivals where there flatfoot jams. I learned more in one night of dancing with oldtimers than 3 months of daily practice alone at home w mirror and metronome.

I love this combination of cute dog and beautiful dancing! Really fun to watch.

[moonshineV]

@swinghips Thanks, I like the dog's steps and shakes too. He's makes SURE he's in every vdo I make at home. A real poser.;)
