## FOCUS 
- This lesson focuses on adding a side-to-side swing to the low down move to enhance fluidity and transition in solo dance.
## TIP & TRICKS:
- Practice the low down with a swing to make it more fluid.
- Start with weight on the right foot and use counts like five-six for timing.
- Combine the basic step with the swing and low down for smooth transitions.
- Pause the video as needed to practice at your own pace.
- Turn around to practice putting the moves together from different angles.

##REMEMBER
- Adding swing to moves like the low down increases fluidity in dance.
- Work on transitions between steps to maintain flow in your movements.
- Keep trying and adjust your technique if it doesn't feel fluid initially.
- Practice with music to integrate the moves into a rhythmic context.
