Re: Being the Demo Uke
I don't consider myself a sexist, that being said, if I am having a day...I might use Charlie for the whole class because it works best for me. Or I might use Dora....it depends on me and what I am teaching.
When I am teaching, how my uke responds to my actions can be detrimental or it can help get my point across. For somethings, it really makes a difference to use an uke who knows me and who has come to lots of my classes over the years.
For somethings it doesn't and I can use an uke who falls early or is afraid or maybe has their agenda.
