each exercise in the stance it began from.
Turn
toward the bar between exercises.
Sitting
down is allowed only with the expressed permission of the
instructor.
Learn
and assimilate the exercises quickly in order to receive the
most out of the class. This is an art in itself and must be
practiced.
Pay
attention to and assimilate corrections given to other
individuals. If the correction is directed toward another person
apply it to your own learning.
When
another group is dancing, prepare yourself to begin dancing as
they finish.
When

forward; finish the exercise and move directly to the front,
then to the side, before returning to the back of the room to
repeat the exercise. This will enable other dancers to begin.

as soon as possible.
At
the end of an exercise, move only after the last note of the
music has finished ringing.
