I’ve been taught WCS by my master teach for three years and he has drilled me about keeping tension in my arms during passes. This causes me to go out of the slot in a regular left side pass. I didn’t notice this until my other teacher, who has just started learning WCS from my master teacher, pointed this out and said this was incorrect. We have both been instructed by the same person in contradicting fashion. I am now confused and am watching this video because it’s beginner level to see what’s up. I’m scrutinizing Megan and her passes. I’m just commenting as a dance student. It’s a frustration. 🤪😹
