    Se prendi il tuo tempo e ti tieni su un bancone (o una barra di balletto), di solito non è troppo difficile superare la palla del piede. Se sei in una milonga (danza del tango) e fai un passo nel mezzo di una combinazione e deve improvvisamente fermarsi, di solito è piuttosto difficile. Quindi davvero, il trucco sta imparando quel posto in un modo veramente chiaro in modo che tu possa farlo più veloce e più automatico.

    Imparare questo significa praticare prima lentamente, poi lentamente, poi quando passi fino a diventare più naturale.

N / A

00:07
So as I go around, this is all about honoring axis.
00:13
And so why can she be so easy,
so gliding as if she were on ball bearings?
00:18
D: And that's because -
N: Was I?
00:19
D: Yes, you were.
N: How cool.
00:20
And that’s because
she had very good technique...
00:23
..and that gives us all this ease
and magic.
00:28
So for example,
when you can do that...
00:30
..you can do lots of cool stuff right?
we'll have combinations.
00:32
Sometimes it’s for the guy right,
we’ll be here...
00:35
and he has this moments of “Ah”
and then going through.
00:39
Sometimes it’s for the girl
and maybe she’ll have.
00:51
So those beautiful pivots where you’re just here
and you go “Ah” and then you go on.
00:59
Some technical things to enable this
for the followers and for the leaders actually...
01:04
..for both people, I want you to be aware
that when you step...
01:07
..especially for the followers...
01:09
..it steps all the way over
to the ball of the foot.
01:11
So if I’m the girl -
01:12
It’s not going to work unless
you’re on the ball of your foot.
01:15
If I do this; and someone says,
"Am I on the ball of my foot?"
01:19
I may say yes.
01:20
A lot of people say,
“Yes I’m on the ball of my foot."
01:21
"Look see I’m forward.”
01:23
But I don’t want you just to be there.
I want you be here.
01:27
So if you pick up your free leg
and then you pick up the other leg’s heel...
01:33
..then you’re on the ball of your foot.
01:34
And then you can lower the foot,
lower the other foot.
01:36
But keep your weight that far forward.
01:40
So even if we step side, I’m there.
01:45
And now there are technical things we can do
to help as well...
01:47
Right?..so the follower;
you can pull in and down just a little bit...
01:50
..and that little bit
helps a lot with balance.
01:51
For example...
01:52
..if I try to balance on one foot,
that’s a very hard way to balance.
01:56
But if I just, even one finger,
all of a sudden it becomes much more stable.
02:01
So you guys can try that,
even with a counter in the kitchen.
02:04
Just put one finger on the counter.
02:06
It makes a huge difference.
02:07
Good point.
02:10
Now for the leaders,
what I want you to do...
02:13
..here, let me get one of our couples
from the previous chapter.
02:17
And I want you to say,
“Well, how can I tell where the follower’s axis is?"
02:21
"How can I help her be on her axis
and not throw her off?”
02:24
And one way to tell is the pressure.
02:26
So for example if this chair is a follower
and I’m holding it right here...
02:31
I feel the weight going a little bit
that way.
02:35
And that means
the chair’s axis is this way right?
02:39
So I have to pull it away from
that point of pressure...
02:42
..and you keep looking around until
you can find this point of perfect balance.
02:45
Or almost perfect.
02:47
And the truth is, and that’s pretty close right,
it takes a while to drop.
02:52
And so I’m doing the same thing with the follower.
02:54
She can do this with me.
02:55
So for example if I’m the follower and
I’m on one foot...
03:00
..and she moves it right here,
guess what?
03:02
She’s going to feel pressure...
03:04
N: A lot of pressure.
D: ..that way.
03:06
And so if you feel pressure that way...
03:07
..then take the follower the opposite way
and there’s no pressure.
03:11
And then if I start going this way
and you feel pressure that way...
03:13
..guess what that means,
it means the follower is leaning back.
03:15
That’s why she’s pulling on you.
03:17
So pull her back onto the ball of her foot.
03:18
And it’s not only for the guys;
it’s for the girls too.
03:20
Girls, if you’re like this
don’t just stay here and make him suffer.
03:25
Right if you’re like this and you're like
"Oh I'm losing my balance,"...
03:26
you can push with your arms to find your balance,
right yourself up.
03:30
This is for both people.
03:33
And when you saw us do this,
these beautiful turning steps...
03:38
..we have maybe an overturn media vuelta
and you look at him and you say...
03:45
“Oh, that’s so beautiful.”
Why is that so beautiful?
03:46
Well it’s about the gliding ease.
But why can you have this gliding ease?
03:51
And the answer is
the ease comes from the balance.
03:57
And the balance comes because
you honor axis.
04:00
And I don’t want you to think that balance is this thing
that’s mystical...
04:04
..and you either have it or you don’t.
04:05
It’s the collection of techniques.
04:06
Finding where the ball of your foot is,
is one technique.
04:08
Using the one finger to balance,
soft pressure downward is a technique.
04:16
Learning where the axis is and
adjusting the arms is another technique.
04:20
So you accumulate these techniques
and eventually...
04:22
..these techniques are elevated
to this sort of mystical beauty.
04:25
And that’s really fun.
