"He danced with everybody but he only had 2 steps..."

He loves getting out and getting active on the dancefloor, but why isn't he interested in learning a little more variety? The two steps were basic and repetitive. Why They Might Not Want to Learn More: They Focus on Connection... They see dancing as a way to chat and smile. Complex steps require too much concentration. Pure Fun! They feel happy with what they can do. They do not need to show off or win a contest. Low Stress: Simple steps mean no fear of making mistakes. They can relax and enjoy the night. Inclusivity: A basic step works with any partner. Everyone can join in easily. At Dance Forever we teach interrelated steps so dancers can have more variety without too much concentration.

About Cathy Nelson at Dance Forever

Image
Starting out 2025 I thought it would be a great time to re-introduce myself here, I made so many new connections this year! I’m Cathy Nelson, and together with my business partner Troy we founded Dance Forever, a social dance studio specializing in adult classes and lessons. With over 14 years of providing "back stage service" at Dance Forever, I’ve had the privilege of helping clients take their dreams to life. One of my proudest accomplishments this year has been the planned launching our couples formation. Our third group performance is next week, and 5 couples took 12 creative classes, guiding them through West Coast swing choreography with clear and actionable training plans to grow their skills. It has been so fulfilling to watch their confidence progress and see their dancing develop—it’s truly made my year! I’m thrilled to share that the next course is enrolling soon, making it accessible to even more newcomers. Plus, we’re kicking off the best deal of the year, Ja...

Gaining CONFIDENCE

"Whether you have experienced seemingly overwhelming fear or distracting nerves, your confidence will come from your interest, your preparedness, and your handling of the situation. Confidence will also likely come with time. With time being of the essence, let's tackle what you can impact and own yourself through your DEMEANOR: D - Decide you believe in you. After all, the audience wants you to succeed, and whoever hired or asked you to speak believes you are a great choice. E - Eye Contact. Look at the audience. Let the audience know you want to see them. Being connected through your eyes will give you insight (no pun intended), and eventually calm you through that feedback. Stay engaged with one person through a full thought/sentence in order not to look jumpy. Do not look over the crowd, as many early public speaking instructional suggested. People can tell you are not making eye-contact, and either judge you as 1) aloof, or 2) scared...neither of which are good for you! M...
