2 Four Corners in Opposition
COURSE: four-corners-special
FOCUS: This lesson teaches the 'Four Corners in Opposition' move, focusing on transitioning into and out of opposition while maintaining connection and body rotation.
TIP & TRICKS:
- Leaders start with weight on the right, followers on the left, in closed position.
- Imagine a spotlight on your chest to keep facing your partner during body rotations.
- Add a pulse to the movement for rhythm and flow.
- Swing the hips naturally to change body angles during four corners.
- If confused, disconnect and close your eyes to focus on hip flow.
- Leaders can use a back-and-forward butt movement to maintain flow in transitions.
REMEMBER:
- Maintain connection by keeping chests facing each other throughout the move.
- Both partners are responsible for their own balance, not relying on counterbalance.
- Use small steps on the spot when doing four corners to emphasize body rotation.
- Practice variations like opposition without hits or adding four corners continuously.
- Trust the hip flow to avoid overthinking and maintain natural movement.
- Leaders have options to pulse or prepare with a butt swing during transitions.
