Hello, Thank you for your suggestion.
For me, I prefer to let & ouccupy the late half beat from Slow, ( so slow occupied 1.5 beats now ) S & qq affect my steps, but my body movement continues through them. My Italian teacher preferred to clap S 2 beats , then emphasize the q right behind the &.They occupied 1/2 each . I responded to his emotion and interpretaion and only asked him about it after the class. For learning and to make thing to be simpler , it is good to borrow the " space" from precede count , at the same time ,dancer interpretes it as he/she likes within a measure even the next measure if needed and looked better.
. Similar questions involved the examinations , books and competitor's lights also.
(Natural spin turn 456 ( waltz), my Chinese coach lead me toward DW ( I called it overturn or not start from backing DC , right turn 1/8 , backing LOD , to lead me forward to LOD on 4 . I carefully asked him, if it quite difficult to lead me along LOD so we can move longer distance than back to DW. He said, competitors did it , don't depend on what the book said.) I had to shut up my mouth in such condition despite I thought we should move along LOD if he gave me the way I wanted on 4 , giving him big room to lead and complete the spin and last step on 5,6 .I believed that I will meet someone dancing in this way.
