Half Turn 1： Followers

COURSE: Contra-Body Adventure

FOCUS: This lesson builds on a previous drill by adding more rotation, focusing on followers performing a half turn with 180-degree rotation while traveling on a single line.

TIP & TRICKS:

• Rotate more on the third step instead of just facing the side.
• Release on the same line after the twist to maintain direction.
• Step directly under the body when releasing from the twist.
• Avoid extending the leg back or taking a big step during the release.
• Make the eighth step a very small step under the body.

REMEMBER:

• The entire movement should travel on one long line for consistency.
• Maintaining connection after the turn is crucial when partnered up.
• Stepping under the body helps preserve balance and alignment.
• Practice the rotation and release to ensure smooth transitions.
