I have been trying to convince my husband of 25 years, that most have to take written notes,to help w/the mental aspects of dance. Then the 5 or 6 day a week "practice "is for bodies muscle memory. He insists he learns "better", by visualization! We are 22 months in, & he can't remember simple figures. He has taken 2 lessons from Victor Fung & Anna, and says " He wants to dance like Victor, me, too!I know & respect all the lead has to do! I just want to help & reduce > frustration. Our profession is medicine & I teach it, so he knows how the body/brain works!
I am not interested in right & wrong, just different learning experiences! Thank You, so very Much! ScottyBoysDoll

How often are you taking lessons?

Also, can you give us examples of some of the "simple figures" which your husband is having trouble remembering?

If your learning strategies are not sound, it makes no difference from whom you take lessons.

I thought maybe we were doing to many dances. I just thought it was his lack of commitment! Never thought it was our instructors, plus I have 156 Dance Vision Videos to Reference anything anytime. Our dance schedule is the same every week.
Monday-1 hour practice
Tuesday - 2 hour lesson
Wednesday - 1 hour practice
Thursday - 2 hour lesson
Friday - 2 hour Mambo/Nightclub 2-Step
Saturday & Sunday - 1 hour practice, sometimes. Well, most of the time!
