## FOCUS 
- This lesson focuses on understanding and embodying the pulse in blues dance as an expansive physical representation of the music's beat, rather than a bounce.
## TIP & TRICKS:
- Think of the pulse as an expansion in the body, like feeling bass from a speaker.
- Move the pulse around the body, such as forwards, backwards, or to the sides.
- Adjust the size of the pulse based on the music, from big to subtle.
- Vary the texture of the pulse, making it smooth or sharp as the song dictates.

##REMEMBER
- The pulse is a physical representation of the beat, not just a bounce.
- It can change in size, texture, and location within the body.
- Adapt the pulse to match the characteristics of different songs.
