Quarter Turn 4： Leaders

COURSE: Contra-Body Adventure

FOCUS: This lesson focuses on the leader's quarter turn technique in contra-body movement, starting with weight on the right and rotating left, followed by stepping back and resetting.

TIP & TRICKS:

• Start with weight on the right foot and travel forward.
• Rotate the body toward the left on count three.
• Reset by stepping under the body on count four.
• Look toward the direction you are about to open.
• Step back onto the left foot from the reset position.
• Practice the sequence repeatedly to build fluidity.

REMEMBER:

• Maintain head alignment and direction awareness during turns.
• Use the reset step to realign the body in the same line.
• Repetition helps the movement feel meditative and natural.
• Focus on body rotation and weight shifts for smooth transitions.
• Start movements from the correct weight distribution for consistency.
• Integrate the sequence into continuous practice for mastery.
