Let's talk polka

[phatmonky]

I'm new to this dance, and am trying my best. I would appreciate any tips to learning it easier.

I'm finding that the tempos are faster than my body wants to move right now, and I step more than shuffle (my movements feel too rigid).

Where do I begin correcting this? Just try over and over?

Hi phatmonky!

I absolutely love the polka :D . I wish I could give you some tips but I don't know what to say apart from ask a dance teacher or maybe someone you dance with. I never learned the polka but after learning how to Waltz I found that it came naturally. It's a really fun dance and a great workout too 8)
