Hey Dennis!

I’m glad you and your wife are dancing together. It’s great for her to know her own footwork, but totally understand that anticipating the move is not good.

Have you tried any connection drills? Check out this video…it might help! Let me know if it does ☺️

Vicki Carrington - I’ll try to go back and find the video for you…thanks for your patience!

Great question Melinda !!!

For all of our turns you want to be over the ball of the foot, and definitely not the heel. If you start to turn on your heels, your weight will not be balanced and you’ll feel very off balanced. The further your heel is off the ground, the less grounded you are.

The further you take the heel off the ground, the more room to fall there is. I’d recommend hovering or staying close to the floor with the rest of your foot.

If the pros are lifting their heel, most likely they’ve had ballet training and are very comfy turning on their own or know how to shift their weight to adjust.

Hope that helps!!

Melinda - A think we figured out what happened!!!

I had 2 email addresses to log in and we deleted one of them (to be less confusing) in the process…any of the comments from that email address disappeared 😩

I’m working to go back through and commenting on everything again. Sorry for the confusion and inconvenience!
