Do you help new dancers with thier steps?

[Chahta Diamond]

Heya. I was just wondering does anyone help new dancers with thier dance moves? I know I haven't seen too much of it. A couple people helped me...probably could still use some more help:Chatter

[lakotajingledancer]

yeah,i have helped some younger girls learn how to dance.but after you teach a bunch of 7 & 8 yr. olds how to dance you dont have very much patience left,but i like doing it.

that's cool you help.I like to see positive things like that.Our pow wow circle out here is so negative right now.Makes you not want to go to pow wow's for a while.

I do

Me and my man are dance instructors for SCIC dance workshop. From young to old, it doesn't matter. I know what you mean about the Cali scene. It's not what you know, but who you know sometimes. Don't give up, we all have to start from somewhere.:p

So is there no one else helping people dancing?

[clrezchik_12]

i only help...

i helped my younger niece for a bit of steps which helped her get princess on my reserve...shes giving up her crown next weekend... and i have to help with her speech and giveaway. but that is about it...the last person i helped learn how to dance ended up not even thanking me in the end for all her accomplishments.

[Chahta Diamond]

that's pretty foul of her.

It wasn't with shawl steps, but I helped some newbies out. They were doing funky steps before they joined the drum I sing with. Now they are just about there with traditional steps. (They just need to develop more of a flow to their steps.)
