Harold & Meredith Sears

A recent evening program is given below (or even the upcoming program, if I get it organized in time). Currently, we're trying a few strategies:

• Of course, we are dancing those dances recently learned with a full teach. We need to repeat these and try to work them into some kind of deeper muscle memory.
• A Review is a second look at the previous week's teach.
  
• We occasionally resurrect an Oldie Challenge. We might dance it, or parts of it, calling up deep, deep muscle memory, and we could even decide that this is worth a new review or teach.
• We are programming a regular View & Do. This is a dance containing mostly standard figures and few or no step cues or modified figures. With a quick look at one or just a few "sections of interest," we should be able to dance it "to cues." We accomplish two things: we add a dance to our repertoire fairly quickly, and we develop our ability to "sight read" -- to dance to individual cues that we know well; it is only the specific sequence of cues that is new to us.
