- So, we're going to do this in three stages. First is going to be teach the trick, without a turn.
- 00:11
- And then, we teach the trick with a turn. And then, we teach the trick with a variation where he sweeps.
- 00:15
- So, first trick, from a wrap.
- 00:25
- Side; he lifts up. Gets her to hook. From the air, he can lift her up. Dip her down, underneath.
- 00:31
- Yes.
- 00:36
- He's like, "David, why did you make me hold that?"
- 00:39
- And... First, a comment for the leaders, the dynamic is, after the hook, you lift her up. You pick up, and over.
- 00:49
- You notice the back is flat, to get her to slide underneath. And, for the followers, notice how very straight she is.
- 00:55
- One more time.
- 00:59
- Once again, he gets a little lower than her. Makes sure his right arm's tight. He lifts from his legs.
- 01:04
- After she hooks, here's that tilt. And then, she goes underneath. And then, you can come out.
- 01:11
- It's a very tough one to hold. Now, we're going to do this same thing.
- 01:15
- But then, he'll pick her up, have a small spin. And then, sigh her in, underneath so it becomes all one motion. Go for it.
- 01:28
- Same beginning. Here, small spin, he steps into it. And lets it sigh so it becomes one motion. And, you can come up.
- 01:38
- Which, I think... And part of the coolness of this step, is the way the transitions melt together.
- 01:44
- So, I want you to really think, "We do this, into that".
- 01:48
- Now, finally, if you just are square, it hooks. It comes up, he picks her up, and over. Or, he can sweep.
- 01:55
- So, go for it, and,
- 02:02
- Same beginning. And, right here,
- 02:10
- Which is exactly right, except harder than I was intending. So, no turn. Makes it harder for them.
- 02:16
- So, do the same thing again, without the turn. So that our poor viewers don't have to suffer in excess.
- 02:22
- We want just the right amount of suffering.
- 02:28
- Beautiful.
- 02:29
- And now, I want to say, that we've shown all these tricks, these different lifts, yada-yada. And we go very fast.
- 02:36
- And so, if there's anything in particular, that you'd like us to spend more detail,
- 02:39
- Spend more time on, break down more - write in the comments, and we will.
