closed hold
1,2,3,5,6,7 cross body lead ending with open hold
1,2,3 prepare follower for double turn
4,5,6,7 lead follower to a double clockwise turn with L-R high and R-L low – R-L is positioned behind follower’s R waist, let go after one turn and reconnected after the second turn
1,2,3 open break on 1, lead follower to the right side (reverse cross body lead) with L-R in front of follower’s forehead
5,6,7 continue leading follower into a 1 1/2 counterclockwise traveling turn (keeping a smooth momentum)
1,2,3 full clockwise turn for leader with both hands up
5,6,7 half clockwise turn for leader (L-R disconnected above R-L and immediately reconnected below R-L on 4/5) and follower’s hands are split above leader’s head and moved down to waist (follower’s R hand staying on leader’s R side and L hand staying on leader’s L side) disconnect holds and reconnect R-R and L-L
1,2,3 open break and move follower to leader’s R side (as leader moves to R to make room)
5,6,7 lead follower forward (forward-left to be exact) on 5 and lead follower to a 1 1/2 clockwise turn with L-L coming up high after the initial 1/2 turn
1,2,3 L-L is lowered and leader turns full clockwise turn with R hand showing at follower’s face level for next move
5,6,7 connect with follower’s R hand by her R side (level with her face), lead follower to a double clockwise turn with R-R
1,2,3 get into cross body lead position
5,6,7 lead follower to a 1 1/2 counterclockwise traveling turn with R-R ending behind leader’s back R shoulder on 7 (needs to be on time to make next move easy) – follower should be side-to-side with leader rather than in reverse cross body lead or open position)
1,2,3 keep L hand on follower’s back and step over to her L side with R hand ending on her back on 3 and L hand showing in front – on 4, position should be cross body lead or Cuban dile que no on 4 – L hand is used to connect L-R
5,6,7 using L-R, lead follower to a traveling 1 1/2 traveling counterclockwise turn (like cross body lead with 1 1/2 counterclockwise turn or Cuban equivalent)
