27 Compression, Spin and Drop

COURSE: Swinging Triplets

FOCUS: This lesson focuses on adding a spin and seated dip to the compression movement, with the goal of creating a compact and controlled ending without unnecessary travel.

TIP & TRICKS:

• Leaders should ensure their right leg is behind their partner to facilitate the squat position.
• Followers should keep their feet underneath them and turn on the spot to avoid traveling.
• Use your head to look back for your leader to help spin faster if needed.
• Maintain elbow close to your body to avoid pushing and keep the movement compact.
• Practice compression and release without pushing to maintain connection.
• For the exit, step together after the dip, adjusting leg styling for stability.

REMEMBER:

• Ensure connection before going into the squat position to maintain control.
• Avoid pushing during the turn to prevent followers from traveling unnecessarily.
• Keep the movement compact and in place without extra directional energy.
• Time the seated dip to fit musical breaks for a natural flow.
• Followers should focus on their leader rather than looking at their feet or away.
• Leaders should pass followers smoothly from one arm to the other during the spin.
