Are there followers who just can't be led?

Well, keep your eyes out for a beginner with contagious determination who doesn't yet have a partner to practice with. Many teachers would probably also be happy to have you as another leader in their various group fundamentals classes.
when my personal circumstances allow for this scenario, I will most definately avail myself of the opportunity...
 
I remember reading an article written by a dance teacher about this and she said "If the follower can't, or won't, follow the leader, he can't make her, he can't stop her movement from propelling through space. He can only go with her movement and hopefully bring her back to the phrase and to the rhythm." She also said "the follower can't be forced to follow, following is a choice." I can't agree more.

Agreed. Following is definitely a choice. The lady carries a lot of power :)
