I can do, just about, the beginners moves. I can, sort of almost, do my 2 intermediate moves. I occasionally dance in time with the music. Once I nearly hit a break. But the one thing I'm really struggling with at the moment is eye contact when dancing.
Basically I either find it very difficult to look at the woman (particularly if she is pretty) so do the whole dance looking at her hands/my feet. Or occasionally I'll dance with a woman who gives lots of eye contact and smiles a great deal at which point I feel I must reciprocate and I end up with this fixed manic looking grin on my face. I think it's more of a shyness/etiquette thing than anything else - I don't NEED to look at my feet.
This may be symptomatic of my lack of social skills generally
but I'm wondering if anyone else has ever encountered this problem? :sorry
