Novice November 2024: Turnout and Triples! - Rising Tide West Coast Swing Guide

[@thepilatesnomads]

Thanks! I am hoping to get my first novice point soon. Competing has been really tough for me. I am being hard on myself... my boyfriend and I started was together a year and a half ago and he has already made it to intermediate as a lead, and is finaling... yet I am still in novice without even one point. I am trying to not be down on myself about going at my own pace, but it can feel a bit discouraging at times. I appreciate these tips! :)

Thanks for watching and commenting! We hope the tips provide a good framework coupled with individual coaching, etc. The journey to getting points is not often linear and leaders and followers often have slightly different trajectories, so what you're experiencing is something many of us do! And, competition "wins" come in many different forms, so we encourage you to learn and celebrate yourself and your progress along the way. Cheering you on!!
