## FOCUS 
- This lesson focuses on posture and connection in close embrace, exploring how to adjust distance between partners while maintaining upper body contact.
## TIP & TRICKS:
- Keep hips over the feet when creating space between partners.
- Maintain connection in the chest and upper body without adding weight.
- Experiment with arm positions to find comfortable and cool poses.
- Practice basics and walks while focusing on posture and connection.
- Initiate space adjustments as either leader or follower and match naturally.

##REMEMBER
- Posture adjustments can be made by one or both partners in close embrace.
- Creating space between hips can enhance movement without losing upper body connection.
- Arm positions should be explored for comfort and style during practice.
- Focus on simple movements like walks to integrate posture and connection skills.
