Its offical - ladies can lead a break!

Just come back form a "fabby" work shop in Aberdeen with Adam and Mandy-. I think it is safe to say that all who attended had a great time and Adam and Mandy were excellent.

One of the hightlights was the section on breaks when Adam discussed the appropriateness of ladies leading a break if the man with whom she is dancing misses them. There was a very logical explanation given - which to sum it up was that the men are concentrating on moves, what comes next etc, that it is understandable if the build up to potential breaks are missed. Ladies however do have more time to anticipate the breaks coming as they liten to the music. The proof of the pudding was when he reversed the roles and all ladies breaked in time to the music with out fail!!!!!!!
