Your wish may come true, at the moment I'm considering writing a book and making a video to go with it that will be available for download. It will be focussed more on gliding technique rather than the whole dancing thing.
Don't be surprised if my voice is a bit deeper than you'd expect though :wink:

Awesome. I'm not too dance savvy but if gliding is the style you used in your colab clip then I'm down to learn. But does it include things like waves and roles too?

BAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA
[Oh, I so desperately needed that tonight..]


On topic:

I would love to learn some flowing dance style.. Something to toss in for my ever-evolving "Cloudlight" routine.. Alas, I have the rhythm of a bodhran, and can't see myself being anything more than a "Kitchen dancer whilst washing dishes" kind of dancer any time soon

toyman, puppet, scarecrow, and boogaloo. First and last one is quite easy to mix but the rest of them is almost impossible...

I would like to add some waving and gliding to my contact juggling and maybe some boogaloo too. I´m mainly practising waving cause I think gliding kills my shoes :( , is that true?
