Into the storm

I guess that I needed to write it down earlier... The rains came back and looks like a storm is on the way. At some other parts in Israel it already started. Some rains at the afternoon and evening. At least it was over for a moment when I went to the studio of Neta for having a deadly class. Ilan and the snobbish woman took a practice outside. I told them they need this warming cause it's really cold outside. In the case of Ilan - he got even warmer. Who was wearing a jeans (I start to wonder if it's because I told him my opinion about and he took it very seriously) after he said more than once it's really hot to dance this way. Inside - Neta looked a bit shocked that I come and say "hi" just like this. Only the assistant and the Russian girl came to the technique class. Andrue was playing to them. I went to change. Not much after I went out again with my shoes for being with Ilan and the snobbish woman - Neta called us in. My friend came only then. Till that moment (because of my mood) I pretty hoped that she won't come for Ilan will have to walk home and walk with me after class. Every time this thought crossed my mind I got angry for myself cause I like her too and always happy with her company. 

I took a lot of distance from the assistant this time and hope to be next to Ilan. It took him some time and he prefer to be next to my friend, so the Russian girl was between us. We made all of us a short practice on some of the steps, only some includes those from the last week. The Russian girl made some steps with no connection. It came from another class that she takes this year at the studio. Neta asked her to do it again and remind her. We learned it cause it can fit the tango. Before we went on - the assistant couldn't understand what to do with the shoulder at the new steps. Neta explained her again and again. I went to drink. Got back to line - Neta asked me if I understand. I wondered when didn't I understand this part. I didn't even answer her. Ilan looked at me. I made him a face in a try to sign him that I don't know where this question came from.

One round of improvisation a letra. The assistant didn't accept to be the first one, so The snobbish was first and the assistant was the second. All of us made mistakes. The assistant and the Russian girl made some (of course) but Neta didn't say much to them. For the snobbish woman - she told where to fix. For Ilan and my friend - they needed to start over and over again. At my case - she signed me how to do better the entrance, after I finished she scold me for the salida - some steps there still doesn't go well to me. All of us made a short practice on it. And this time I wasn't sure anyway cause Andreu was playing very different that the usual, so I didn't know if we understand each other. 

Second round. Neta asked us to show like we enjoy it. Again - the snobbish woman was the first cause the assistant was afraid. She made it better. The assistant... Still horrible but Neta doesn't say a thing to her. My friend was great. And Ilan... He probably came more upside down than I did. It still didn't work out to him. Neta asked him to do something different and just get stuck and enjoying the movement. All started to analyse it accept me. Others said as well that it was difficult this time because of the way Andreu was playing to us, it was like checking us if we can do it different. Neta asked me to do now. I remind her that it's the turn of the Russian girl. I can't say she made it perfect, but she made it better than her earlier try. At my case... I think I made a mistake once, but through the respond I received at the same moment - the others didn't really care about it. And this time because I made my first trial for this evening - it was easier this time, I got my warming. This time Neta smiled and said it was better this time, I just have to be more correct at the time that I do my salida (the meaning to the steps that earlier she got mad me on the way I do it). 

For the end - she asked us to do some certain parts of dance, not even a letra. Just to  get in and enjoy a part of steps. The girls made it well, I made something which I wasn't sure it's a real flamenco the "gun" part, but nothing to tell me that I was wrong. Ilan asked for being the last one this time. When all girls made it - Neta showed us her thing. Some said that it's the turn of Ilan, but Neta asked Andrue to take his guitar aside and dance as well. He made something a bit crazy and cool. Ilan was the last. Neta asked Andreu to stay with us for the palmas instead getting back to the guitar. Ilan made it this time. 

On the way out I asked Ilan if he will come to the fiesta at Thursday, the fieasta which will take a part after the workshop. It took some time till I could ask him cause he was too busy at strangers. When he finally answered me he said that he doesn't know yet. It didn't work out for him today and he hates everybody. 

The rain got back. At least after coming back home and taking my dog for his night walk.
