Rik,

Thanks for chiming in. Yeah, the combinations do occasionally hurt my brain but I think it is a great way to challenge myself.

I find that it kind of hurts my brain to remember all those combinations, but it can be great for your other dancing because it really teaches you about foot placement, emphasis and rhythm.

You beat me to the punch. I haven't even taken with Derick K. Grant yet and I'm supposed to be the "Tap Dance Man". LOL! I had a really great time with you all at Banjo Jim's. If I lived in NY I would be there every Monday night! Thanks for the links. Taps Wow Carl!
