Aahz,
I'm not sure what you're saying in your email. Do you teach a right
and left through plus the chain in the beginning lesson because
learning those moves is critical to the success of the evening? And
are you saying that you spend little time with the swing because
those other moves are difficult and deserve/need more time?
It's understandable that these two moves are difficult because
they're so similar, not to us but to the newbies.
What if you didn't use right and left through AND ladies chain in the
same dance or the beginning lesson? In other words, let people
practice/digest one before learning the other.
You also said, "so wrong swings have little effect on the overall
structure/flow of the dance". Can you explain this to me?
