Front Ochos - Intro
None
- 00:14
- So that's front ocho
- 00:15
- and it's probably one of the couple first steps you should
- 00:18
- learn in tango showing from another angle.
- 00:32
- If we are doing that right, it should be
- 00:34
- that our bodies are shifting at the same time.
- 00:37
- And so I like to break it down into three pieces.
- 00:39
- There's a beginning,
- 00:41
- and the beginning is side
- 00:44
- leader shifts and there's a pivot.
- 00:46
- So that's the beginning.
- 00:50
- One more time, side leader shifts and there's a pivot.
- 00:54
- And then we have the middle, which is step
- 00:57
- and pivot, step
- 01:03
- and pivot step and then and pivot.
- 01:06
- But this last pivot will just cut short
- 01:08
- and then there's an end.
- 01:10
- The leader changes white.
- 01:12
- So we'll show that from another angle.
- 01:15
- And as I show this from another angle,
- 01:17
- also some technique tips.
- 01:18
- First for, for, for the leaders
- 01:21
- and followers, let the follower get
- 01:22
- completely over the ball of the foot.
- 01:24
- And then after things stabilize, then you pivot. And for
- 01:27
- The followers, if the leaders rushing
- 01:29
- and you don't have time, take the time.
- 01:32
- So you wanna really be over the ball
- 01:33
- of your foot before you pivot
- 01:35
- And then pivot all the way the full 90 degrees.
- 01:38
- Well, so both of you notice how our arms are moving
- 01:42
- or, or this arm.
- 01:44
- And for the follower, if we do a closeup, um,
- 01:46
- watch the quality of the collection of her feet.
- 01:49
- So as we're here when she pivots, there's really the sense
- 01:52
- of the feet being together.
- 01:59
- That looked very nice.
- 02:00
- Thank you. I saw it in the, in the monitor. That's
- 02:04
- Cool. So we'll end
- 02:05
- with a demo. So one more time. Here we go.
