## FOCUS 
- This lesson teaches the 'Four Corners' move, focusing on hip rotation and movement, building from a basic step to add layers like hip pushes and scoops.
## TIP & TRICKS:
- Start with weight on the right and do two-count basics in place.
- Add rotation by facing corners without collecting the leg under the body.
- Incorporate a hip push when rotating to each corner.
- Add a scoop around the back as you transfer weight to the other leg.
- Practice with arms to visualize the ribbon or box shape for guidance.
- Travel slightly forward by leaving the foot in front instead of bringing it back.

##REMEMBER
- Keep hips heavy and relaxed with knees bent for a soft, swinging motion.
- Avoid popping heels up; keep them on the floor for stability.
- Use the 'deflate button' imagery to release tension and relax the body.
- Play with the size of the swing to vary the move from subtle to large.
- Transition into the move from basics either by scooping or with a hip push.
- Dance in front of a mirror to check form and avoid unnecessary movements.
