Still tired like crazy, so... I hope again it won't be weirder than it was.This Tuesday we didn't have a class because of Independence Day, Thursday we had a class instead. Couldn't see a show... If I only could be in two different places the same time, and have the energy and time to write about all - that could be perfect.
When I came (of course after more few fail attempts to sleep to sleep from time to time) there was the bata class. No one of my class came yet accept the snobbish woman who also takes the bata class. I started to wonder if we'll have a private class. Some more girls came later on and most of us came. The assistant and her friend weren't there. I didn't feel like asking and I didn't know if they came and went already or didn't come at all. Later on I found out that they came to another class and went away. Andreu was there to play for us. My friend came a moment before class has started. She was putting her stuff next to mine and didn't try to say hello to anyone. Because I was so tired, my leg started to hurt again and anything I had with her lately - I didn't have the energy to start trying to talk with her.
Our class has started. I was glad that by the space in the studio I didn't have to try standing next to my friend. I had something to say that made a lot of attention, but I guess it wasn't enough important to write about it cause I forgot already. We started to practice our letras of tangos - the order we made. Neta asked me few times about the order, steps and letras. I remembered mostly the order of letras and if the steps fit or not. My friend had the real memory for the steps. Andreu went to sit behind us for we'll start to get used to dance in a cuadro. After some practice on each one of the letras alone - Neta asked us to dance all together and she told us what to do between letras. Many mistakes at the parts between. My friend who remembered well the steps of letras made most of mistakes between letras. Again and again to practice it. Neta asked us to do some jaleo to Andreu between the letras. I made a bit near the end. Neta looked at me, at the start she looked surprised, a moment after she smiled.
We started with the solos. The snobbish woman was first. It didn't work out for her. She's been asked to do it again. I noticed that something doesn't work out, but I couldn't say what's the problem. Neta stopped her again. The snobbish woman said that she's at blackout. Neta asked us if she did what we suppose to do together. The snobbish woman said that something like cause she's at a blackout. Neta said that we suppose to dance our personal dances at this part and NOT to repeat what we had. We had few minutes to think. I went to drink and joined others in a practice. I went at one point with back to mirror. I saw how Andreu started to look at me. Too much attention... I started to smile but it felt like I started to be shy.
Dancing again. This time the snobbish woman made it well. I we next and it was my turn to screw it. It wasn't bad to the end, but I had some mistakes and Neta came to made the salida with me. My friend was next and danced well. I didn't feel like making a jaleo to her, again - energy, things we had lately and... Did she make any jaleo to me now? When others danced she was still next to me. Twice she knocked my arm for I will sing. I did! Once again for the palmas will be with a knocking. That moment I asked her if I should be afraid that she's standing next to me. She said that no, but... She went away after that and I heard too well the "sinning" of the snobbish woman. After all made a round Neta said that most made a mistake and didn't sign any going to a salida. OK, at least one thing that I'm glad that I'm not one of those at "most". I did my sign. Neta asked us to make another round. This time the snobbish woman and me made our rounds better. This time when I danced I heard the jaleo of my friend. Wehn I finished and back to my place I saw her looking at me smiling in a look which can easy be explained as adoring. Please don't ask me now to get excited out of it.... Neta said it was much better now and more correct. Istill didn't feel like making any jaleo to anyone.
Neta said that second round was better to all of us, but we need to dance stop thinking. It still looks like we think too much.She wanted to finish class. Some remind her the siguiryia. Only the Russian girl went away. Rest of us took our castanets. The snobbish woman looked like she doesn't understand from where did I bring mine.
We started to work on new steps. It wasn't something difficult for our level, but at once learning steps, moving our hands and playing the castanets. While trying to practice it and making many mistakes - I saw a woman who looks like at her early 70's stand by the window from outside and taking a video through her smartphone. I was still busy in a practice to make a drama the same moment. When she finished another woman came to her and they started to go while the video maker ran faster. I ran to the window. Excuse me! Her friend called her to come back. I said that that it isn't for the internet. She said kinda weird "OK" and I guess that she didn't like that she's been caught. After more practice when it started to feel easy Neta asked to make a video. She gave her phone to the snobbish woman for making one version of video, I made another at my camera.
We still had some time to dance all something like three times - includes once with fixing brakes.
At end of class I told about the woman who took the video. No one saw her accept me (and I noticed first through the mirror). Neta said it's a student of a formet student of hers. What's her name? She said the anme, but as I know - this dancer/teacher always tell that she had another teacher. I knew her sister too who told me about someone else. OK, Neta asked Andreu about the age of the student. It's about a 13 years old girl. Fine, blame it on kids! It was an old woman! Oh, so it isn't her! It didn't take too long till my friend finally had something to say to me accept the jaleo. She "washed" me fro asking the woman that it won't get to the internet cause it could give Neta some advertising. She said it again and again. What does she think? that if she would say it over and over again I will think different? Yeah, a video of all of us make mistakes... And I wonder if this woman knows who's the teacher for giving the right credit....
