Is coaching really necessary? Can’t my teacher just give me the information?

Tony Meredith and Melanie LaPatin believe it is always best to get a different point of view on your dancing. You may have an amazing teacher with tons of experience, but if you are always dancing with the same person, you get used to the way they dance and your instructor might not be able to see things the way an outside coach can. Also, a lot of coaches are adjudicators as well and they know what other judges are looking for from a competitive angle. Coaching is not only reserved for competitive students however, it is great for any student that wants their dancing to progress quickly. One coaching session from a good coach can give you material to work on with your teacher for several lessons.
