| I would like to nominate...
Mick (Michaella) Walker, who taught once a week at Cambridge when I first learnt to dance. She is the best teacher I have ever had...although Amir comes close.
There is a difference between those people who you know as teachers from special events, workshops, and so forth, and those who teach at regular venues on ordinary class nights. (Of course, some people are lucky enough to get teachers from the first category at their regular venues...)
Mick taught with flair and humour and oodles of style; she told everyone what to do with their left hand and how to make themselves more interesting and attractive as dancers. There are other teachers I have had over the years who make me thank my lucky stars I had Mick instead! |
