My First Lindy hop Video: You've come a long way baby!
I actually like this short footage. This was the first video I ever had of me recording myself Lindy hopping. I am usually my worst critic, asking myself were you easy to lead, and even more so I always worry if I look "fat" in the video, but heck I am. Lol! But honestly this time around I felt a bit relieved that I just did my thing and did not worry about my size and focused just my simple skill set. And for a novice I don't think I looked so bad. I looked down to much out of uncertainty. After all, at least a year before I could hardly figure out simple routines and certainly did not have the stamina to maintain if I could. So the weight loss had begun to work and this short dance clip show me that I had come very far and at the same time I looked forward to where I could go! My kicks are better and I also don't just drop my arm any more. I have a little more polished style. Well I think anyway! lol I thank my dance instructor Samuel Coleman for persistent reminders about practicing and going out social dancing. His field trips helped many of us get used to social dancing.
This was great
