While this is an oversimplification, certainly a large part of the vocabulary in tango is about stepping to left, right, forward, backwards, weight changes, pivoting around yourself or pivoting around your partner. Typically, if we think about transitioning from ochos to something, we can connect the pivot in the ocho to the pivot in another step. That's not the only way but it is one very accessible way.
