Standard Lesson with Ikaika 6/10/2010

Attendee: Sharron

Today we continued on foxtrot.
We moved on to the reverse turn, went though the feather finished and focused on the three step.


we continued to work on sway. I asked a few questions.
1. the sway of the 2nd step in foxtrot, how should it feel. answer is like feeling the swing of right leg to the right back.
2. The heel turn need to feed planted/drilled/grounded on the ground on the right foot.
3. still need to remember to stretch to the left, but the stretch of the upper body is initiated from the lower body.
4. Need to challenge myself to do more of the sway.
5. need to remember to stay on the standing foot for longer.
6. three step: the timing of the neutralizing of the hip is similar to the timing in reverse turn.
7. remember the left side lead on the three step to keep the upper body still stretching into the left space, almost like back of head leading into left back space.
