This is how you want to move. Fluid motion is just another way to describe dancing smoothly.
While our body's bones allow us to stand upright & our joints allow us to move, it's our muscles that control it all. The key to moving smoothly is using our muscles to maintain control at all times while dancing. The better muscle control we have the better and smoother we can move. A quick demonstration of how the muscles can control your movement is to stand on one foot and concentrate on the foot muscles. As you stand there you will feel the foot constantly adjust to maintain balance.
Practice this many times daily and you gain better balance thru better
control of the foot muscles.
While dancing, concentrate on which muscles are being used and you will find out
which need exercise. Try to develop exercises that will develop those muscles in
the way that is helpful to dancing.
Back to standing on your right foot, try to raise up to your toes. Do this
several times and you are exercising the right foot. Just remember to work on
the left foot equally or you may wind up off center.
This way of dance (and health) improvement can be done alone and almost
anywhere.
Any other ideas???

OUR POLICY: Webmasters; You are granted permission to copy any content from our web site, provided that you provide a link to http://www.twosteptidewater.com (Contact us by email if you would like a reciprocal link). We are always looking for ways to make Two Step Tidewater Virginia THE PLACE for dance information in the Tidewater area (Norfolk VA, Virginia Beach, Chesapeake VA, Suffolk VA, Portsmouth VA, Newport News VA, Hampton va, Hampton Roads VA, Yorktown VA, Gloucester VA, Jamestown VA, and Williamsburg VA) - and for other dance events or dance locations which are of interest to Tidewater (Southside and Peninsula) area Hampton Roads dancers. We prefer to exchange links with other dance-information sites. To add a dance link, or exchange links with your web pages, email Will Harper or Walter Schultz. Worthy dance events, may post to our web site by emailing a cut-and-paste ready announcement. Your announcement can be just a text announcement or even a full web page. We will host an ongoing web page, at no cost, for Tidewater Area dance-related activities, without their own web page. Be sure to include date, time, cost, contact and location information for your event. In exchange, we ask that anyone posting to our site, include a reference to www.twosteptidewater.com on your site and/or in your intra-group's mailing list emails. (Not just C&W. We'll include Ballroom, Swing, WCS, Disco, Folk, or just churches or other clubs with dances.) We will attempt to post/remove events within a couple of days - but we cannot accept responsibility for missing an event or any other reason. We will attempt to verify ALL links, to prevent any offensive or off-topic links, but, again, cannot be responsible for other's.
