In this class, we focus on linking counterclockwise turns in the rhythm of vals. But these turns could be used just as well in Tango.

Musical Demo:
In this class, we look at the leader executing a forward sacada to her back cross step (back ocho) and then creating an alteration of her forward cross step into a back cross step.
During this series, we will examine the proper technique for leading and following Paradas (stops) and Pasadas (passovers).
Variations on the Ocho Cortado for intermediate dancers.
