Kneel down and see our etchings

At class last night we were looking for an alternative way to explain a foundation move - the grind. It's a gentle raunch of a thing, made by taking the legs apart a tad, bending the knees slightly (and we mean "slightly" so as to avoid the whole bandy-legged cowboy look), and taking the hips round and round in a smooth circle - side forward side back, side forward side back and so on.

"Well," says the Sparkly Bra Pixie, "think of it as if someone had stuck a pencil up your *^$!*, and you were drawing circles on the floor."

Various showgirls were giggling at the idea of doing just that and then going home to their other half to demonstrate what they had learnt that evening.

"Come here, and watch me write to you," one suggested saying to her partner.

"Ah," we said, " but what you'll write will just be "ooooooo"."

Which actually, we all agreed, would be appropriate.

We're going to need some very long pencils :-)

Yours, enhancing skills wherever we go,
