When I first danced, I couldn’t get the hey for weeks and weeks until someone 
drew a figure 8 with an extra loop on a blackboard for me. Then it all made 
sense. 

For that reason, now, I keep a large hand-drawn with dark thick magic marker 
figure 8 with extra loop on a piece of stiff light paper (like a manilla folder 
thickness) that I can hold up and show briefly as I am teaching the figure. It 
doesn’t get everyone, but it gets people like me. There are always one or two - 
“ahas” that I hear. I could never learn it from the pass this shoulder or that 
instruction. I needed the floor pattern. Everyone learns differently.
