Setenta, Coca cola, Sombrero - CDC Rhona & Helen Improvers

Setenta review
basic open position
normal 1,2,3
left hand up on 4 - partner does pivot turn 180 on 5,6,7 (clockwise) - hold on to right hand and on 7, right hand (holding partner's left hand) should be on partner's left hip on 8
forward on 1 (move partner forward as well using R on hip to lead)
lead partner to turn counterclockwise 180 on 2,3
finish 5,6,7 normally

Coca cola (different from Monday version) - not totally sure
basic? R-L hold only
left hand on partner's right shoulder on 1
my feet goes to cross body like position on 2,3 but partner follows because I'm pulling partner with me from her shoulder -- I think my right hand goes to partner's right hip on 3 - partner is positioned to my right
turn partner counterclockwise 360 leading her on her hip
my footwork is aimed to move back a little on 5,6,7 as partner completes turn (while this makes it slightly more complicated for the leaders, this apparently allows followers more room to maneuver during the turn) ... 5 - R foot to left .6 - L foot back right. 7 - R foot back to catch up with L foot)

Sombrero (much more like Monday version)
cross body lead and end up on open position and change hands R hand on top
(note completion on change hands can be done on next 1,2,3)
step forward (possibly away from partner like Monday?) and back on 1,2,3 as I pull partner across me and have her slighly overtaking me on 4 (DO NOT START turning partner until 5)
turn partner counterclockwise 1 3/4 and end up with sombrero position on 8
at this point drop left hand ... and lower right hand from neck-shoulder position down to partner's back (knowledgeable partner would free her left arm and place it on my shoulder to be more comfortable)
step forward and back for 1,2,3 and get ready for cross body lead
complete cross body lead on 5,6,7
