Now, we're going to work on your isolations for your dance. We're going to concentrate at this moment in your hip movements. Isolating the down part of your body. The position is very important. Be sure to keep your feet slightly apart and straight, tuck in your behind, bend your knees slightly and focus in your hips. So we go, working your right, hips to your right, center, working you left, hips to you left, center. And again, right, center, left, center, right, center, left, center. Now we're going to go away from the center. We go right and left. Out to your right, out to your left. And again, one and two and three and four. We're going to create now a hip circle with your right, back, left and front. When you go to your right, your weight is moving you right, back, even weighting your heels left, weighting your left, forward, even weight in the ball of your feet. So you go right, back, left, front, right, back, left, reverse, back, right, front, left, back, right, front, left, center, go to your right, left, right, center. We're going to create now a figure eight. We're going to go to back, that would be one, two, forward, back, three, four, forward. So you go one corner to the back, one, two corner to the front, two, three, back, forward four. One, two, three, four. So this is your figure eight, isolating for your dance. One more time. And you go back to your center and you go right, left, right, center.
