Entering the inner centering


We wish to express a small insight of our thinking - philosophy, how we work with dancers, what we need to put in as a coach and how dancers have to commit themselves to be able to find the maximum together. To work as a coach is a very demanding and responsible job. You have to have a lifestyle yourself and education in many different directions outside the technical knowledge of dancing. It is important to be and to have connections to the experts outside the dancing same as to the technical dancing experts themselves. Without this network of experts a coach can't help dancers to get out the maximum. If dancers ask me for coaching them and our "chemistry" fits, the process can start to enter the inner centering to find out and built up:


...Plan of strategy for helping dancers to get success...


As a trainer and coach it is important to help the couples/ dancers to get known their own body in a better way, to listen to their own signals and to be able to develop more independence in their own actions.
A very big area is the help of development in harmony and balance in the partnership.
To help the dancers to use information and knowledge in the right way.
On a competition couples/ dancers need help to prepare themselves to get out their best.
To work to develop security and keep still the fun for the dancing.
The trainer and coach has to help from outside. Therefore he has to get known the couples wishes and needs for their dancing.


Therefore dancers need a short and long term plan to built up the knowledge to achieve their wishes.
Through this planning it is possible to get:


Systematic training
Continue to build up and secure the connection
(relationship to partner, coach) and development in the training
Security and importance of the quality
Build up of a training in consideration of the age of development
Awareness of the dancers about their doing
and giving a coach an insight
Built up trust and interest between dancer and coach
Secure control of the training and development


....Plan of lifestyle to find the own rhythm....


To find a rhythm of a lifestyle is necessary for the ability to get success. Therefore it is important to plan the lifestyle that is needed for the different ability grades the dancers wish to accomplish. This has to be built up gradually. The form of lifestyle should contain following points:


How the time is used to work, school, other hobbies, training, social parties, etc.
When and how to practise
How independent and creative somebody is
How to rest and eat
How the relationships to family and friends are
