Again to the the mixed class

I came fine. Ilan was ready and already some around him. I didn't need to say much. He said that all is fine, nothing happened. The tall one got back and told about the leg that turned around to her and she wasn't at the studio because of it. She's been asked if she's about to dance at the sneakers she came with. She said that when she finally came back - she forgot her flamenco shoes. I said to Ilan that yesterday he didn't have patience to me. He said that yesterday he had a long day and didn't have patience to anyone, nothing personal against me. The friend of the assistant offered me a cookie she baked. I went to change. At the bata class was a girl who I know that I know her but can't remember from where. She wasn't there last week but When at the start of year there was a video of the bata class - I know she was there. The fat woman was pathetic and didn't do much accept walking while the familiar one, the snobbish woman and her daughter were dancing and used their batas. When their class was over - Neta needed to call us for a while. The "ballerina" came back. I told Ilan that I needed to bring puking bags. He made it for weapons and sent me to bring water buckets from the toilets. And yes, he knows against who do I want to use it. A girl I never saw before came at the last moment when class meant to start. All were happy to see her avvept me. I made a try to figure out who the hell is she. The familiar one stayed for the start of class. 

Our class meant to start in sinning, but Neta decided at the last moment that we'll start to dance with music for it will be easier to our ears. We listened to the new tango while a practice on steps. My friend came after we started. The girl who I never saw before asked what happened. She's been told more than once and still didn't seem to understand. Later on I could know she didn't....

We've been asked to think for a moment and start improvisation.That time I noticed that the tall one wasn't there any more. It was crowded without her anyway. 

Half circle. The daughter didn't want to try. The snobbish woman was first. She can do better. It wasn't really at the same order we stood at, only by the first person. None of the girls was at their best although not all made real mistakes. For me - Neta didn't trust me and told me all the time what's about to come. I wasn't sure  if I made it shorter than I wanted by mistake or that Neta asked me to finish because she had enough, but the salida was with less mistakes. The girl I don't know has been asked to try after me. She didn't want. Neta asked who didn't do yet. Me and few others said that Ilan wasn't yet. He didn't want but made a try. Something happened to him. He started well but started to make mistakes until Neta asked him to stop trying, I started to wonder if it's stress because of all the crowd. The friend of the assistant was after. Neta asked the unknown one, the daughter and... To be with her in a small circle inside our circle. The "ballerina" joined them. At the start Neta couldn't understand why. They all danced together by the mood that Neta had that moment. 

We had few more minutes for this part. We became a real circle. Each one of us started to dance few steps and let the person from left to finish it. After that to the second side. Neta said we all looked good that part, but... I was pretty shocked that she didn't say to all at the same moment they do well. I was one of the only lucky ones who she said at the same moment that it was good. 

Moving on to the siguiryia. Neta asked the veterans to bring their castanets. I went to drink some water. Got back to the area of Ilan. He almost fall and after I almost fell too at the same place - I couldn't understand why. There was a smooth part on the floor. He asked me where are my castanets. I said that I'm not from the veterans. He asked me what to I mean that I'm not, am I not 8 years or so at this studio? I am, but this year I took only the improvisation class. He said that he forgot that I already have my siguiryia at another place. He see me so much this year. I wondered if Neta heard this conversation. She was still busy to explain again to the unknown what happen now those classes. The unknown said that she didn't understand what happened till now. 

We worked few times on the entrada. We all remembered parts of it and none remembered all, so it was a luck we had recorded videos. The assistant sat down. She said that she's on pain. After few times of practice - twice or three times the part of the veterans with the castanets. The "ballerina" was with them and was the worst. A work on the part we join them. Many times. The fat woman changed her shoes and still made a try to dance before she went away. She went few minutes before class was over. The the man who close the place was already nervous and came to ask when do we finish. Only once again all from the start. It went pretty well. 

At the way out I asked Ilan to wait for a moment. He said he does. Yeah, again I was too stressed. Outside we were talking with the snobbish woman about the difference between now and before and how better it is when this group is smaller. Yeah, too many people for them too and it stressed them both. The snobbish woman said she's about to quit. I said that I rather it will be someone else. I mean to the "ballerina". I was surprised from myself that I really meant it. I'm still not crazy for the snobbish woman but she's far from disturbing me and I can't say that I hate her. About the "ballerina" - hate won't be too strong word for what I feel for her. She went with her daughter to the car of my friend. Ilan stopped near a weird person of the parking place. I stopped for talking with Ilan. I asked him what was the thing of veterans or not and saying there that he forgot that I have my siguiryia in another place. He said that I know him, it can happen. I said that I hope no one heard it cause it's better that a certain person won't know that I started to learn also in another studio. She didn't go yet. Neta was at the other side walk and looked at us in a weird way. I think it was in a way of "what the hell happen there?". One more last goodbye for tonight
