February 26 Slavi lesson

Started with quickstep
long wall of chasses, getting into it
go forward and step hop (i.e. right now I do a curve back toward the right, but slavi wants more progressive head towards the left, then stay there on the next step-hop)

Last wall
hold longer after the q-q-slide, pose

and after pose, also slavi wanted an extra bar of music
so instead of q-an-q-and (1234) slow-q-q-q-qn (12-34-5n)
do q-an-q-and (1234) sloow qq slow (pause) then go

also last wall chasse-pepper pot slooow (now hold ship, and keep going/slide)


Waltz
whisk, hold head/shape to the right longer before turning head on the whisk
then pivots...right spin turn, after is too fast, settle on right leg more

Fallaways, weight should be on left leg after, same problem as the part above after right spin turn...need to spend more time on the standing leg

Right lunge in waltz, don't rise with legs on the first separation...rise with body only

Then after the chasses is too fast, slow -q-and-quick, the last quick, slavi wants almost a q-and-quick-and (i.e. the foot doesn't land on the "and" of 3-and, whereas I get there on 3)

Also wanted more positivity :)
