"Hello, I am Sarolta Eke. Hello I am Tomasko Shay. We are here on behalf of expertvillage. We are going to show you how to dance Mambo. This is the ladies step for Mambo Cucaracha. It's almost the same as the man's, but the ladies should start to the right. It looks like this: two, and three, four and one. Two and three, four and one. Two and three, four and one. The foot positions for this step are right foot to the side, left foot in place, close right foot to left foot. Then change the weight.

Side, in place, close, and change. Side, in place, close, and change. So this figure is about the hips. The hips should more around a number eight. If you draw a number eight on the floor, your hips should follow this line, the line of the eight. Maybe you can practice standing by your feet apart a little, just move around your hips. To the front, and back, front, and back. Front, back, front back. Just draw a number eight with your hips. And this is the same thing you have to do when you are stepping those steps. We start from here, right foot to the side. Two, and three, four, and one. Two, and three, four and one. Two, and three, four and one. Two, three, four, and one. Two, and you can make it quicker. One, two, and three, four and one. Two and three, four and one. Two and three, four and one. Two and three, four and one. Two and three, four and one. Two and three, four and one."
