## FOCUS 
- This lesson teaches how to dance between the beats rather than on them, focusing on filling the time between beats with movement to enhance musicality.
## TIP & TRICKS:
- Think of a beat as a period of time, not just a point, to better understand the space available for movement.
- Practice dancing on top of the beats and then switch to dancing in between them to visually see the difference.
- Use a medium slow song to clearly observe and practice the contrast between on-beat and between-beat dancing.
- Fill the space between beats with your movement, as this is where the expressive 'party' happens in dance.

##REMEMBER
- Avoid fixating solely on the beats themselves; instead, focus on the intervals between them for more dynamic dancing.
- Dancing between the beats allows for greater musical expression and fluidity in your movements.
- Consider beats as durations (e.g., one second at 60 BPM) to better plan and execute movements within that time.
- This technique helps in adapting to different song tempos and enhancing overall dance creativity.
