Men's Cross Over Breaks with Turn in Mambo Dancing

Video Transcript

"Hi! This is Leslie Sack. My website is lesliesack.com and the dance is Mambo that we are doing. This next one is cross over breaks and we are going to combine them with two other patterns, the cross over break into a walk around turn. So cross over breaks are pretty easy by themselves. You are just rocking forward and this is for the man or the woman 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4. It is kind of awkward to go straight from this from the side basic 3 cross body lead first. If I were just going to do it from the side basic, it would look like this 2, 3, 4, 2, 3, 4, 2, 3 and I can come forward. So that would be the easy version which is a little tough. It doesn't feel very good with your partner. So for the guys here's your part: 2, 3, 4, 1. Here's the basic cross body lead 2, 3, 4 do it again and use your cross by lead for a little transition then you bring her leash right in and cross over, take her other hand again 2, 3,4, 2, 3 or up and she is going to do a walk around, turn and she rocks back 2, 3, 4, 2, 3 cross by hand twice, 2, 3, 4, cross body lead twice, 2 3 4 cross body lead, release, she's over here, quick quick slow, 2, 3, 4, 2, 3, 4 and then she turns around."
