There's the teacher who encourages you, and the teacher who tells you how to improve.
Ron Gursky is not there to praise or raise false hope. "You know you look better than most of the people out there, and they will tell you how great you are. I will only tell you how to be better."
Maybe a bit wishy-washy, I first praise improvement and then look for faults and try to steer students to the preferred outcome without discouraging them.
Anyway, after winter break, the new students got their "Tango ladder" knocked down, and glowed. I did my homework and went after the underpinnings of Quickstep. Argentine Tango class got told they were like a bunch of mice running around and not interpreting the dark slow music. International Rhumba got to do "Spirals".
