## FOCUS 
- This lesson teaches a dance combination of a turn, lunge, and lunge with a flick, focusing on integrating the flick movement smoothly from the lunge position.
## TIP & TRICKS:
- Leaders should initiate the flick by moving their center forward to lead the partner.
- Followers need to keep the leg relaxed in the lunge to allow for the flick movement.
- Avoid anchoring too much into the ground during the first lunge to maintain mobility.
- Ensure centers stay connected during the flick for better partner movement.
- Control the landing after the flick to maintain balance and flow.
- Practice the combination at varying speeds to match music tempo and add drama.

##REMEMBER
- Maintain readiness for movement in the lunge to execute the flick effectively.
- Timing can be flexible and should adapt to the music and personal style.
- Keep the body relaxed and avoid getting stuck in positions to ensure fluid transitions.
- Focus on partner connection through center movement for coordinated actions.
- Experiment with speed and drama to make the combination exciting and dynamic.
- Use the flick as a playful element without strict counts, allowing for creative expression.
