## FOCUS 
- This lesson focuses on adding body rotation to a forward triple step variation, with the goal of opening the body on the first forward step while keeping the foot facing forward.
## TIP & TRICKS:
- Open your body slightly on the first forward step, with the foot still facing forward.
- Emphasise the first step to highlight the body rotation.
- When stepping forward on the right, open towards the left; on the left, open towards the right.
- Push with the body as if pushing something to enhance the rotation.
- Focus on changing the rotation of your body from the starting position to the open position.

##REMEMBER
- The main focus is on changing the body rotation, not the other two steps.
- Keep the foot facing forward even as the body rotates.
- The leg at the back should open up slightly during the rotation.
- Practice the rotation to achieve the desired body positions.
