A problem solved when seeing it done is Salsa

When I learned to drive, I was taken to a car park to get to grips with the clutch first. Then out on quiet roads to get adept at handling the car. A step at a time. Thats is the key, learn one thing at a time and build on it.

They way one move in salsa was done was interesting. It is a move where you put the lady s right-arm behind her back and swap it from your left to your right, then turn her out. In Jive this is a move I have an issue with. My issue is that you have to bend down to get your arm around. You bend down and find your face very close to their chest. Not great for the follow or the lead. A small difference makes all the difference. In Salsa you step to the side. Same move essentially but you are bending down the side of the lady instead. Much better. Now I take this to Jive and do it that way instead. Step to your left, bend down to the follower's right-hand side.

Lots get inspiration/ideas from other dance genres. We can fuse them into our routines.
