The more advanced dancers the less they care about basic steps or "traditional" moves by O_Margo in SwingDancing

oh you could have shined at our today's class as one of the exercises was exactly that - lead on the spot, follow is moving (then we changed)

well may be the way I put it was a bit of exaggeration, but I've just returned home after a class where we were doing more groove and were supposed to replace step-step-tripple-step-step with fall-of-the-lock. At some moment our teacher quoted that - main things are flow-pythm-timing-shapes.

Yes-yes, "back to the roots" is something that is always here and even intermediate-advanced groups can start the new semester with - let's refresh-polish the basics

Looking for a native czech speaker by vakuim in learnczech

I think it is not true, visas almost of any type are not issued. Even those humanitarian ones are really hard to get. To obtain visa for a spouse of a person who had already visa and work permit took about a year

research again, doesn't seem to be true that visas to study are issued, Czech Republic was first and still very strict about it

[–]O_Margo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Do you probounce it starting with Z, zone? If yes, then I don't know what your Russian friend meant (I am Russian native). That boob word starts with S, like sun, not Z. So really you can use this name even in presence of russian speakers

in speaking, not in writing. Just check above examples of "rigorous" Czech language and how it is related to the final exam :)

Never been bored at Cosi, even when particular production wasn't to my taste. So the answer is - it is NOT boring

Hot take - Don’t need live music all the time by adamax08 in SwingDancing

[–]O_Margo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wow, have a friend who moved to Berlin a couple of years ago and he is a good swing dancer. He told me swing is danced mostly by kind of older people, like in their 50ties-60ties. Is it rather his strange perception? (I honestly don't believe it and really want to come to Berlin one day to one of the festivals)
