In weekly classes, there is usually a gender imbalance, so we operate
a "change corner" which couples who wish to stay together bypass.
In balanced workshops, I prefer teachers to say something like
"leaders move round 1 follower" frequently if they want to mix us up,
and "return to original partner" when that makes sense.
During a class, my brain is too full to want the extra load of
guessing who would be best to practice with, and I know I'd often be
wrong. Also, cabeceo plus milling about takes up valuable time.
