What I would like is a sort of "reverse lead" where the women are able to indicate (signal?) to the men when they want to improvise. Some women already do it up to a point, but I reckon it could be developed more.
As in the thread about men slowing down moves, using subtle hand-holds, women should be able to indicate to their partner when they want to slow down the dance, or pause it temporarily to do their own (stylish) thing! A gentle squeeze, a thumb strategically placed, eye contact etc... |
Completely agree. In fact I was just saying the other day to someone who gives me a lot of problems in this regard that I'd love to let her do her own thing more, but I can't read when she wants to do it, or when she's coming to the end of it. So a signal would be great. I was going to say perfect, but I suppose perfection would be "just knowing".
