FOCUS
- This lesson covers exits from single-axis turns, focusing on how both leaders and followers can initiate the exit and adapt footwork accordingly.
TIP & TRICKS:
- Leaders can shift the axis in any direction, with forward and back being easiest.
- Followers can exit independently if they feel motion sick or the music phrasing suggests it.
- Exits vary based on weight placement, leading to mirrored or same-leg footwork.
- For same-leg exits, leaders cut out one step to maintain momentum.
- Practice exits initiated by either partner to see how footwork changes.
##REMEMBER
- Both leaders and followers can be responsible for exiting the turn.
- Footwork at exit depends on the follower's actions and timing of the axis shift.
- Mirrored-leg exits are straightforward, while same-leg exits require adjusted steps.
- Leaders should signal readiness to move on after exiting.
- Adapt exits based on partner comfort and musical cues.
