<p>COURSE: Basic Turns</p>

<p>FOCUS: This lesson teaches the inside turn in dance, focusing on proper technique for leaders and followers to execute the turn smoothly and return to close position.</p>
|
||||
<p>TIP & TRICKS: <ul>
|
||||
<li>Leaders should prepare by lifting the left hand and turning the body slightly to signal the turn.</li>
|
||||
<li>Followers should keep the right arm relaxed to allow it to cut across the body naturally during the turn.</li>
|
||||
<li>Use a 'magic button' signal by placing the hand on the partner's back to indicate returning to close position.</li>
|
||||
<li>Maintain distance as a leader to allow the follower to lift the elbow and slide back into connection.</li>
|
||||
</ul></p>
|
||||
<p>REMEMBER: <ul>
|
||||
<li>The turn takes eight counts to complete, so keep the basic steps slow and controlled.</li>
|
||||
<li>Followers should look at the inside of their elbow during the turn to maintain orientation.</li>
|
||||
<li>Traveling a bit during the turn is normal and should not be forced.</li>
|
||||
<li>Clear body positioning and hand signals help communicate the move effectively between partners.</li>

|
||||
- Followers should keep the right arm relaxed to allow it to cut across the body naturally during the turn.
|
||||
- Use a 'magic button' signal by placing the hand on the partner's back to indicate returning to close position.
|
||||
- Maintain distance as a leader to allow the follower to lift the elbow and slide back into connection.
|
||||
|
||||
##REMEMBER
|
||||
- The turn takes eight counts to complete, so keep the basic steps slow and controlled.
|
||||
- Followers should look at the inside of their elbow during the turn to maintain orientation.
|
||||
- Traveling a bit during the turn is normal and should not be forced.
|
||||
- Clear body positioning and hand signals help communicate the move effectively between partners.

## FOCUS
|
||||
- This lesson teaches the walking inside turn, focusing on stepping every beat and transitioning from four basics to the turn with proper lead and follow techniques.
|
||||
## TIP & TRICKS:
|
||||
- Leaders open up the body and lift hands slightly to prepare for the turn.
|
||||
- Step through the turn on a line, using directional energy rather than just rotation.
|
||||
- Keep shoulders down and elbows relaxed, with the inside of the elbow visible during the turn.
|
||||
- Leaders place the right hand behind the partner's back between the third and fourth counts to signal coming back together.
|
||||
- Maintain palm-to-palm hand position throughout the turn to avoid wrist soreness.
|
||||
|
||||
##REMEMBER
|
||||
- The inside turn involves both rotational and directional energy compared to slower turns.
|
||||
- Practice turning on a line, such as a floorboard, to improve footwork accuracy.
|
||||
- Ensure smooth transitions from basics to the turn with clear hand signals.
|
||||
- Focus on consistent stepping rhythm to maintain timing throughout the movement.

<p>COURSE: Basic Turns</p>
|

<p>FOCUS: This lesson focuses on mixing inside and outside turns at different speeds, teaching how to lead and follow tempo changes clearly.</p>
|
||||
<p>TIP & TRICKS: <ul>
|
||||
<li>For slow turns, maintain the same energy and rhythm, only changing the pathway.</li>
|
||||
<li>For fast turns, increase energy slightly and step every beat to signal the change.</li>
|
||||
<li>Use follow lag by waiting for the leader's initiation before starting a turn.</li>
|
||||
<li>When transitioning from fast to slow, relax and release energy while maintaining pulse.</li>
|
||||
<li>Travel a bit more space in faster turns to make movement easier.</li>
|
||||
<li>Practice mixing turns with music to refine lead and follow skills.</li>
|
||||
</ul></p>
|
||||
<p>REMEMBER: <ul>
|
||||
<li>The difference between slow and fast turns is signaled by changes in energy and pathway, not just footwork.</li>
|
||||
<li>Clear communication through pulse and body energy is essential for effective leading and following.</li>
|
||||
<li>End positions for turns are similar, allowing flexibility in transitions and sequences.</li>
|
||||
<li>Use turns as a training opportunity to improve partner communication and responsiveness.</li>
