5th Mar 2020

After-class demo of what we learned on the 3rd March 2020. This routine starts with a basic giro, then we add two sacadas, a gancho, and finish with a soltada gancho. A 'soltada' is a move where the leader disconnects from the follower for a moment so they can reposition. It may be used for pivots, promenades around your partner, or - like in this case - to get into position for a reverse carried-gancho.
