Here’s what 99% of helpful people are doing WRONG...
"Many people mistakenly believe they’re “helping” by offering unsolicited advice. It’s actually counterproductive to point out someone else’s mistakes. People can only absorb so much information at a time. Pointing out every error you perceive in your partner's dancing overloads them and makes it harder for them to dance well.Trust that your fellow dancer doing the best they can in that moment. Their best is enough.
Telling others how to dance also assumes a position of superiority, presumes that your own dancing is without fault, and that you know more than they do - which is often not the case (I have stories for days on this...) People who really know what they're doing in the dance world know enough not to correct their partners." - Marsha Mitchell
