If you not sure where to go - take this recommendation:
If you know how to lead/follow molinete plus you somewhat familiar with the elements listed AND deciphering steps and cross / parallel system cues - take group 1.
If you have issues with giros, cross / parallel system OR placing yourself in 3D space while watching 2D zoom causes you a headache - take group 3.
Still in doubt - email is and we will give you our honest opinion.
You might hate zoom, you might be apprehensive about the whole virtual learning experience - but we had tried it during private lessons and Virtual Tuesdays - and we assure you - it works! So please give it a try. If you want to talk to someone about the experience - the couples that are taking Virtual Tuesdays or Virtual Sunday - are very willing to share. Simply email us and we put you in touch with them.
