## FOCUS 
- This lesson teaches a pass-by move on the leader's right side, focusing on stretch, frame, and turns to create smooth movement and direction.
## TIP & TRICKS:
- Build stretch on step one and increase it between steps two and three for earlier timing.
- Leaders step forward and face the partner on steps one, two, three to initiate body turn.
- On the release, drop the hand to create a turn, maintaining frame to guide direction.
- For a free outside turn, release between steps three and four to allow follower rotation without pushing.
- In a connected outside turn, maintain hand connection and raise the arm to guide the turn without extra energy.
- Followers step under the body while turning to stay balanced and avoid traveling too much.

##REMEMBER
- The stretch creates movement, while the frame decides the direction of the turn.
- Maintain frame by keeping the shoulder down and elbow in peripheral vision to ensure proper body alignment.
- Increase stretch energy slightly between steps two and three for dynamics, but stay relaxed to avoid pulling.
- Followers should track the leader's position during turns to be ready to reconnect smoothly.
- Leaders guide turns by releasing or maintaining connection, not by pushing, to keep the move fluid.
- Practice both simple and dynamic versions to add rhythm and energy to the pass-by move.
