23 Foot Fans%3A Partnered

COURSE: Swinging Triplets

FOCUS: This lesson teaches how to lead and follow the foot fan in partnered swinging triplets from a closed position, focusing on body rotation and connection.

TIP & TRICKS:

• Start with an 'in' movement before opening to create compression in the connection points.
• Practice with two hands to feel equal compression on both sides before transitioning back to closed position.
• For followers, the foot fan is a styling option influenced by body rotation, not directly led.
• Adjust foot technique based on shoe type, such as keeping the foot flat in high heels for better control.

REMEMBER:

• Body rotation influences the partnership shape and creates compression in the connection.
• Compression should be felt lightly on one side without pushing into the partner.
• The number of basics before transitioning to the fan can vary based on personal preference.
