Sunday afternoon public session on our smaller rink... this was a first for me. Complete with disco lighting! We did the best we could. Today I really dissected the video and I can clearly see I have some major posture issues when it comes to ice dancing. I tend to lean forward on each step rather than skating "through the hips".

Without a coach I have to rely on my own instincts after viewing my videos and comparing them to those who can dance well. I sure hope to find one soon that I can get regular lessons from.
