A few dances will be taught most weeks. Make sure you ask questions if you are unsure about anything. When an unfamiliar dance is requested, try the dance by following behind someone who knows the dance well. If the dance is not too fast, join the line a few people away from the feet you want to follow. If you are having difficulty picking up the dance this way, and would really like to learn it, make sure you ask the dance leader to teach it in a future session.
