## FOCUS 
- This lesson focuses on adding hip push styling into turns for both leaders and followers in Jooking Blues, aiming to integrate hip movement smoothly while turning without altering the basic step pattern.
## TIP & TRICKS:
- Keep your feet underneath the body at all times to maintain balance during turns.
- Swing the hip back into neutral under the body before taking a step to facilitate turning.
- Practice basics on the spot with small steps before adding the hip push to build comfort.
- Add the hip push on the two count when ready to incorporate it into the turn.
- Leaders should maintain the hand closer to the body when leading a turn for themselves to avoid confusing the partner.

##REMEMBER
- Turning with hip push should be as easy as turning with a basic step with proper practice.
- Do not rush the movement; take it easy to enjoy the hip swing, especially in slow music.
- Followers can add hip styling on top of their turn while maintaining the same timing.
- Leaders can choose to join in with the hip push when inspired by the follower's variation.
- Both leaders and followers can be inspired by each other's hip push to add it to their basics.
