## FOCUS 
- This lesson focuses on partnered Rumba using the Tresillo rhythm as a basic step, with optional variations of the Rumba rhythm added independently for spice.
## TIP & TRICKS:
- Use the Tresillo as a simplified base step in partnership.
- Add Rumba rhythm variations independently when desired for extra flair.
- Incorporate the rhythm in your feet or other body parts as feels good.
- Maintain connection with your partner without disrupting it with variations.
- Join in with the demonstration when ready during the song.

##REMEMBER
- Avoid using the full Rumba rhythm as a basic step in partnership due to complexity.
- Tresillo is preferred as a base for easier and better-feeling partnered dancing.
- Variations should enhance without breaking the partner connection.
- Flexibility in rhythm application allows for personal expression in the moment.
