Re: practise regime? what's yours?

I get a lot of my basic drilling (shimmies, etc) from teaching 7-10 classes per week. Outside of that, I'll usually put in about an hour or so 3 times a week. Sometimes that includes a private lesson with my teacher; I try to do them at least twice a month when she's not on the road, though If she were local, I'd definately do weekly lessons. Similar to Adi, if I'm rehearsing for or building a choreo for a show, I'll usually practice at least an hour or two every day the couple of weeks leading up to the event.

I did slack off over the holidays, though. I didn't teach at all and I only practiced maybe 3 times between Christmas and New Years, which is very unusual. Bad Galatea!
