"Hello, I am Sarolta Eke. Hello, I am Thomaska Shay. We are here on behalf of Expert Village. We are going to show you how to dance Mambo. It's Mambo Checks with partner. Lift up on your toes, that?s 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. What is important about this figure is the lead. The men should lead the lady. We will show it from this side. We are starting from a two-hand hold, and then when we are going, this side, which is right to the man, then he will release the lady's left arm with his right. We are keeping hold of the other hand. So, it's two, and in the meanwhile you can keep your other free arm to the side. And three, we are holding both our hands now again. Now release the other hand, and we can do the other side. Two, and three. So, release, hold again, release, hold again, release, hold again, release, hold again. One, two and three. 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. You can practice this continuously, but it's not very easy to do it continuously. So maybe you can practice just two of the checks and then stop for awhile, and then later on if you are more practiced you can try for several times."
