What progress??? (week 7)


Last week I commented on how much progress I was able to make in such a short amount of time.  I was ecstatic because I was finally able to bled the complexities of the dance with the harmonies of the music.  This week... not so much.

Tango club did not go as well as I expected it to.  I was unable to re-conjure the the ability to connect music to the dance moves that I could so well the week before.  I was off balance, out of step, and frustrated because it was much harder for me to tango than it was the week before.  Class was similar in that it was not my best dancing.

In my previous post I mentioned the fact that learning does not occur in a linear process.  While I still believe this, I don't necessary believe that the graph of learning should function like a cosin curve (or is that sin... I haven't taken a math class in 5 years).  With that said, I may be being too hard on my self.  Tango requires an incorporation of so many things and maybe my off week shows that I have added new complexities to the dance that will in turn improve my dancing.

Until next time...
