On behalf of Expert Village, my name is Talia Castro-Pozo and I'm Jules Helm. And we're here in New York City at Stepping Out Studios teaching you Night Club Salsa. So next up, we're going to do back spot turn variations. When you do a back spot turn variation, you remember the last foot, we were able to go three hundred sixty degrees, that's all the way around. On all the variations, you're going to only turn half way. So basically, what you're doing as the leader, is you're jumping off a slab and letting your partner come by, with either an inside or outside turn. In this one we're going to show you the inside turn. So we're here. We're going to do that open break, I jump off the slab, I do that back spot turn foot work, right there she comes in for the inside turn. Again, demonstrating open break, going inside, while turning to her top down would be counter clockwise. Watching that one more time. For followers, you keep a straight line. Quick, quick, slow, quick, quick, slow. And the leaders, jumping off the slab. That's your back spot turn with followers inside turn variation.
