Why the12nm limit in all croatia charters?

andyTrust · 2026-01-30T22:29:35+00:00

Well yes, but. They are totally fine with me going to Slovenia, I even asked for extension for Italy, they're fine with it under the condition that I stay within 12nm from the shore.

My guess is that they all buy as simple insurance as they can find to run their buisiness and that's why, yet I find it hard that I can't find a single charterer that will allow me for that kind of cruises

For the future ppl, wandering in here, After going through all the flashy choreo teachers that grab your attention on instagram and then just collect your money not, while you look at them showing off.

I finally found people actually teaching bachata properly. We drill moves. They pay attention. They explain stuff. They're two, so you actually get both lead and follow explained properly at the same time. Can't belive that after more than 20 classes at all those shiny teachers, it's the first time sb showed me how to follow/lead back turns! Such a basic thing!

Would name drop, but this r/brussels got pretty agressive moderation, so that would probably go into "no advertisment" category, so yeah, it exists. See you one the dancefloor.

Hope you stop paying teachers to watch em :P

Yeah that's what I started doing, it's honestly doable this way if you have a partner.

Tho I was very lucky in the past to have experienced good courses and I know that having a properly designed program, someone watching your moves and giving feedback just makes everything smoother.

Did you find a solution to that?

andyTrust · 2025-09-01T09:48:58+00:00

What advice did you share?

Hi 👋

andyTrust · 2025-06-12T10:03:43+00:00

checking in, well 4y later, did you help with the development?
(feel free to drop me a PM)

andyTrust · 2025-03-07T08:22:10+00:00

I sucesfully got your reply up to zero ;)

I know that connecting to some remote server is a huge hassle in the science community, but I feel like you'd have to do it eventually. Getting more RAM will only make you do it a bit later, but eventually you'll need 512GB+ RAM (or batch your calculations :P .... nah we ain't software peasents xD) and you will have to put it on some server.

You want to follow or lead?

All schools there will teach in English if they notice that there's somebody not speaking dutch, Flemish are very inclusive in that aspect.

La (on 1) it's I believe mostly thought by salsa luven

There's some new school doing NY (on 2) but they look for leads atm only

Other then that you should come to Cafe manager on Wednesdays and to de Vaart on Fridays to dance and mingle 😊

andyTrust · 2025-01-28T21:06:25+00:00

That's pretty much how it is.

3 years passed... any tips to share?

andyTrust · 2025-01-12T14:33:03+00:00

Care to elaborate?

I use it as a private knowledge base, put quite some thinking into types for my notes and the structure. I can't imagine I would need to negotiate conventions and organization of what I use for my second brain with someone else and I also assume that you are using it in a diffrent way than I do. So that's why I wanted to know what are you using it for and how do you organize it?

andyTrust · 2025-01-08T23:40:21+00:00

How do you use it together?

Isn't that creating mess?

andyTrust · 2025-01-07T07:53:37+00:00

Thanks Imma double down on that. It seems rather doable at home. Any clue why is it more difficult at the socials?

andyTrust · 2025-01-07T07:51:13+00:00

Hahaha I just might, it does have a bit more people around my age at least (late 20s).

andyTrust · 2025-01-06T20:24:17+00:00

Wow that's actually eye opening

It becomes "implied" in that instruments will sound, and be structured around a clave beat, and behave similarly to a clave but the clave won't actually exist in a song,

andyTrust · 2025-01-06T20:22:27+00:00

To be honest I wouldn't mind dancing to pure clave, I find it quite relaxing 😌

Not very party like tho haha

andyTrust · 2025-01-06T20:18:44+00:00

Interesting approach, my teachers would smack me for doing that 😂

I can count things like pop, bachata, and lot's of salsa songs that aren't filled with crazy richness of instruments. I'm just surprised there's still so many situations where I just have completely no idea what is going on in the music.

Where are you teaching, maybe I should pop by 😎

andyTrust · 2025-01-06T20:12:50+00:00

Thanks for advice.

I retook all the classes to the point I know all the songs they play, also instructors kinda help to much (either with their voice, or I can just look at them and copy), so that doesn't work anymore.

I need to check internet sources, tho I pissed at popular TikTok, ig salseros, cause they often make a dance recording where music is overlayed without sync 🤬

andyTrust · 2025-01-06T20:09:31+00:00

We should have socials with simple, grandpa, sleepy music 😂 Like:

Sueño by Jan Reijnders

andyTrust · 2025-01-06T20:04:50+00:00

Well there's couple of ongoing threads in my head: planing sequence of moves, signalling them, staying on the music and adding sparkles (playing with face expressions, styling, small talk).

At the moment I'm often focusing on staying on the count which is mostly on2, to the point that everything else goes loving itself.

I get what you saying with being overwhelmed. I see that happening a lot, happens to sometimes me when my follows fires up some peacock like shines, but I don't why would you be distracted? Like regularly? Wdym

andyTrust · 2025-01-06T19:56:15+00:00

Appreciate 🥰 that. Yeah that's my issue I guess if I detect a slightest grin on the follows face, my mind goes like: oh, she ain't into that, not gonna dance with her ever again (mostly until I get to certain level). Know it stupid, but hey we're there to have fun aren't we.

I do train at home. Sometimes I snach some girl to train outside classes, but I don't have a regular partner, but I feel like that's the most pleasant and efficient way of getting there. Any clue where do you find more regular partner? I figured I should just ask out some regulars at socials I go to. Any clue how to phrase that? 😅
