And I am one who has complained. I think it's a shame these things aren't included in the intermediate class... and really don't understand why they can't. The intermediate class could cover the same moves that are covered in the beginner class but with musicalily style .. more emphasis on lead follow etc. Maybe not every week.. but once in a while... Intermediate classes do little to help women improve IMHO...

I agree...
(I DID think I could dance BTW before I went to ceroc (solo dancing of course...
) and I expect most women do too...In many ways I have had to un-learn the way I danced to do ceroc)

Absolutely agree.
