From the learning centre i found the Walks which i printed and laminated. I cut them into postcard size. They got mixed up on the table. I had to look twice to see which were forward and which were backward. Which leads me to beleive that the verticle body is the same which ever way I go.

Seperate from the problems in that particular walk sequence, it is indeed true that there is little if any difference between forward actions and watching backwards actions backwars.

If you add rise and fall to dance real figures there is one huge difference though.

Anonymous. Don't cloud the issue with rise and fall. Lets stick to a Forward or Backward walk as is on the Learning Centre. This is one step into a Feather, or a Natural or a Reverse or just practice all heel leads walks down the floor.

I'm not trying to cloud the issue, but to point out that the concept is quite general to many things beyond flat walks - but with a glaring exception that shows up in a particular type of rise and fall.

I saw a film there were no videos in those days. 1958). It wasn't very good, and yet at that time they were the best professionals in the world. The lady was stuck right in front of the man, and in some cases from the back couldn't be seen except for a curl just showing over the man's shoulder. The man's head position wasn't crash hot either. But then that's the way it was. The only answer today is to keep up dating or get left behind .
