12345678 .

Now from the back 567 and 123 tap basic .

And , and now with a gentleman .

So gentlemen , we're gonna start by first lifting the lady's hand up right before the turn to let the ladies know that she's going to turn .

We're gonna start on the 567 .

Tap 123 .

Tap hand goes up and one turn for the ladies and 56 71 more time .

123 , tap hand goes up 123 , tap 56 and seven .

Gentlemen , you want to make sure that your hand is nice and secure .

You're not squeezing the lady's thumb and all you're doing is drawing a nice little circle above the lady's head as you're going into the turn at the end of the term , make sure you collect the other hand so you can feel free to go into the basic .

Ladies also make sure that you're spotting where you're going , that means look to where you're going .

So you don't bump into anyone and gentlemen as well , make sure that you're looking to where you're gonna turn the ladies just to make sure that you avoid obstacles .

If you see something in the way you stop or you change the lady's direction .

So we're gonna start by going and 123 and tap 567 .

So notice I looked right when I was gonna turn her and then I stopped and look at her at the end .

Now let's try this with some music .

So gentlemen notice how I'm protecting her the whole way .

I'm asking for the hand right after just in case we need to change direction .

And now with your free hand , gentlemen , feel free to put it in your waist or just out in the open and 567 10 .

And ladies know that you can also do this turn to the left exactly the same way .

And this is how you do a basic turn .
