Everything, from how to stand correctly, through to complex layered movements, were taught to me in discrete steps with a number of "checks" (ways to determine if the step is being done correctly).
It's exactly my way to learn new dancing movements: my intuitive "copying" is too weak for complex movement. Now I'm learning hustle, and often can see, that another people in the group are copying new movements faster than me. Hustle is partner dance, so there is some issues connected with interaction in pair, which are rather difficult for me (I'm not always feeling the partner). E.g. girls in the group said that my "leading" in dance is sometimes strange: e.g. "don't push me", "don't throw me as the bag of potatoes", "I'm not a log", "I don't understand you", "listen to the rhythm". Now situation is improving.

I tried to dance with other kids in the 9th grade and other kids made fun of me.
I had and still have simular situation: any "free dance" looks unnatural in my case.
