I was at a class once when the teacher (I think he was Argentinian,
but don't remember for sure) did just that. He showed a cool figure
and said "Now you guys do it". I was a very green beginner back then,
so I knew right away I couldn't repeat it, but all, and I do mean all,
men in the room just looked at him with their jaws dropping down. I
think we squeezed a step-by-step explanation of the figure out of him,
but not without resistance :)
