Cannot wait to be back on the Lake for a few weeks this summer while moving from Germany to Colorado. Have some B&J’s for me down on Church Street! |

Clearly more positive feedback is needed here. This is everything you've always wanted to mention to your newbie second but forgot to say until they screwed it up and you got frustrated and impatient. All great advice, well worth reading THE WHOLE THING and sharing with your newbie BEFORE you turn into a jerk and start yelling at them. |

"(b) Be totally attentive. No chatting with anyone around. If people try to chat with you, tell them politely that you need to pay attention to your leader." Nothing gets me more when I'm on the sharp end and the person on the other end is chatting it up with others. Always remember, you have the life of another in your hands! Otherwise, expect to be the lone soul sitting out the dance wondering why you're not being asked out again. |

Wish I had read this before my first "trad date"...Helpful advice. |
