## FOCUS 
- This lesson teaches the inside turn move in Chicago Triple, focusing on leading and following from a closed position with specific timing and energy.
## TIP & TRICKS:
- Leaders open up towards their right shoulder to create space for the turn.
- Followers turn underneath the arm on the fourth triple step.
- Maintain connection and energy throughout the turn for a smooth execution.
- Use the stretch at the end to decide on the return, such as floating back or adding rotation.

##REMEMBER
- The inside turn starts from a closed position with precise timing on the fourth triple.
- Leaders and followers must coordinate their movements to keep the flow continuous.
- Endings can be mixed and matched, similar to the send out move.
- Practice with music to integrate the move smoothly into dance sequences.
