Great idea and great list so far. I like some of the extra points that Rachel added too.
I would only add one more tip for Freestyle Beginners.
- Pick a couple of moves you can lead / dance well and use them as the foundation for your freestyle, don't be afraid to repeat them often, and use them as fall-back moves when you panic and can't think of anything else. Only add one or 2 new moves (from the class) peridically through the dance in-between your foundation moves.
Good foundation moves are the Manspin (or shoulder slide), the First Move, the Armjive and the In & Out...
