Bless

Timing - well, that is natural as they are so wrapped up in getting the moves right, they are not listening to the music.

Backleading - really bad habit new ladies/followers have

Ladies turning - beginners always seem to do a travelling return

Only one really bad habit I found, was them gripping to tight and jerking my arm a lot (it really aches now)

However, we were all there one time and they are very keen, so can't really moan. I got a really lovely dance with Simon R and a great dance with Andy so I was happy
