I had (still do at times) have problems with my arms...my coach works out arm positions into my programs...and I'm to do the footwork part first, then the arms without the feet, then when it's good add it all together. Seems to work, along with her asking me "what were your arms DOING and where were they SUPPOSED TO BE???" (um I don't remember usually hehe)

She might be concentrating so much on her lower body (as someone else mentioned) she is not paying much mind to her upper body.

And I just started taking dance this past summer-it helps.
