Hallelujah Lean

rating

Intro idea - work in progress for the start of Badlands. Note: This looks straightforward, it is straightforward, but the potential to topple is very great. A small lean creates a huge pull. (At that small angle I need to pull around 1/3rd of her body weight) If the angle increases another 10 degrees it exceeds half her body weight.

Intro Tee

rating

Can be used mid dance or at the end. Make sure you put your leg out - else a tumble will ensue.

Lean

rating

This turned out harder than I thought.

Lean number 7

rating

Easier option than the fall forward.

Lean to

rating

Simple lift - fairly stable.

Lift Back to Back

rating

Nice drop to end a dance. Leg often looks better when not raised high.

Seatbelt Drop

rating

Forget about the naff lean with knees touching, this is the real thing. Me and Megan spent an age devising a balance like this with just one leg but were bedevilled by torsion issues. So, we plumped for this. Outside in light rain it was stunning looking up.
