15 Wheee No Hands!

COURSE: our-favourite-moves

FOCUS: This lesson teaches a dance move called 'Wheee No Hands!' focusing on an inside turn leading to a side-by-side position without hand holds, emphasizing body connection and movement coordination between leaders and followers.

TIP & TRICKS:

• Leaders create distance after the inside turn by aligning shoulders and connecting left shoulder to partner's right shoulder.
• Followers should step under their body as they move to maintain balance and follow the leader's lead.
• Use a four-count timing: one and two and three and four, with rotation on the two for smooth execution.
• Leaders lower themselves and move backwards to signal followers to disconnect arms and move forwards.
• Keep arms raised after disconnecting to avoid hitting the partner when moving into side-by-side position.

REMEMBER:

• Focus on body movement over precise footwork to adapt to the leader's cues and maintain flow.
• Clear communication through body positioning is essential for signaling transitions without hand holds.
• Practice the move with music to integrate timing and coordination for a natural feel.
