Here are a bunch of things you can do to practice without a partner :-)

You're not the only one. I promise. I think most of us went through that at some point!

We have a long discussion about leading and following (although maybe not specifically anticipating) in this video.

That is the PERFECT way to go about it. Especially in class! I love to hear stories like that. All that being said... we've got several videos to help. Here's one to get you started.

There are a few videos on posture that might give you a few things to think about :-)

We cover a lot here!

So happy to hear it! Finding partners is probably the single biggest struggle we can't help with LOL but it sounds like you're trucking along and having fun!

That's a great question. It's tricky to answer really. I guess my best advice is to see if the same thing happens to you across different partners. If it does... maybe its something to look into. If things go wrong in a particular dance... Welcome to the club! LOL I think that happens to all of us.

Thanks for sharing your story! I think it's good for people to hear that we all struggle but that the journey is worth it!
