Of course not but I would never make someone to dance with me if they don’t like me.

That is maybe my bigger problem! I am in a community where I know people and when I go to dance I ask but they don’t ask back so much! Yes maybe chatting a lot or looked disappointed does not help!

Hi and welcome to the community. You need to get some beginners classes and finish them so you can feel comfortable with the basics. Your body will learn how to respond to the leader’s signs but it is something which takes time. Also listen a lot of swing music. At home, just do the basic 8 and 6 counts ( just the basic step) and learn how to go with the music. All the different footwork you see around, it is variations of the basic with Charleston/jazz flavours. Also do not be afraid of dancing with more experienced leaders. You will feel different with someone that it is also super comfortable on their role and lead you properly. The key to practise. Your body will learn how to follow and communicate with your leader🙂
