## FOCUS 
- This lesson introduces three new endings for the inside turn variation in Ballroom Blues, focusing on transitioning from a promenade to different positions like closed, close embrace, and left shoulder alignment.
## TIP & TRICKS:
- Leaders step back on steps one, two, three to create space for the follower.
- Followers should look at the leader during the turn to gauge connection and positioning.
- In close embrace, leaders avoid sliding the arm and connect on step one.
- For the left shoulder ending, leaders step back and slightly to the side on step six to clear the way.
- Followers maintain momentum after the turn and keep walking when connecting with the partner.

##REMEMBER
- Connect as soon as possible when seeing your partner's back to re-establish position.
- Leaders should signal clearly which ending they intend, while followers trust and feel the placement.
- Practice mixing and matching endings with music to build confidence and vocabulary in transitions.
- Maintain space and connection throughout the turn to ensure smooth flow into basics.
