Copa

This looks quite easy, but can take a bit to master.

Doing it in a clockwork fashion with predetermined steps is not the same.

Difficulty level :

Copa-Copa

Both taking a turn.

Difficulty level :

Copa Spin

Spin out from copa.

Difficulty level :

Copa Wrap

May make follower a little dizzy so not overused.

Difficulty level :

Dame

An element of rueda.

When used in Jive, many will add a flick spin to it.

Difficulty level :

Duplet

Add some elan.

Difficulty level :

Do si do

Leaders start it, followers keep it going.

I am sure some of you can go quicker?

Difficulty level :

Fast expressive

A lesson in expression.

Have fun but be controllable. Be super good rather than super annoying.

Difficulty level :

Fill

Used between moves to fill time. Gives leader a chance to think of next move.

Push- pull

Difficulty level :

Flying

One of those I did once by chance with Megan then forgot how I did it. Re-discovered.

Difficulty level :

Frame Fill

Perfectly reasonable to dance in frame to fill time.

Difficulty level :

Half Neck-Break

We can show you how to stop this happening in the lessons. Some will junk one or two beats by doing the neck-break in a semi-fashion.

Difficulty level :

Hand pass behind

Can be done either side. Note the arm not held is best kept out of the way. Makes sure you step to the side when you drop to reach behind.

Difficulty level :

Hand Swapping

How to smooth swap your left to your right and vice versa.

You can turn and swap or simply swap on the spot without any move involved.

Difficulty level :

Hammerlock Inverted

Hand positioning plays a big part in making this work smoothly.

Difficulty level :

Great dance floor at the rear of the pub.

We have a jolly fine sound system.
