The Respect Dance

Footwork pattern for the Respect Dance: Two steps forward – into my personal space. Four steps backward – get the hell out of my personal space, done in double-time. Rodney never needs this. It would be good if he did. He might be happier if he had the confidence to test his boundaries occasionally. OnContinue reading “The Respect Dance”
