How does it feel?

In our art of body expression, fixing how the dance looks has to be accomplished through how the movement feels from the inside.
That awareness is called an inner eye, a metaphor that highlights how important vision is to us.
Looking in a mirror can help in order to set up the muscle memory as the movement happens. Then the dancer ignores the mirror to look at the partner.
If the partner is predictable, the inner eye can focus on how the dance feels at the same time.
