Video: Bossa Nova Basic Turning Left
This is an instruction video Turning Left for the Bossa Nova Beginner Series. The last couple of weeks I have posted the three basic steps of the American Bossa Nova dance (Basic, Walkaround Turn & Parallel breaks) and also a practice video.
The Turning Left element can be used in every dance. It will help you move around the dance floor and is also the beginning to freestyling.
The contents of this video:
- Men’s Turning Left
- Lady’s Turning Left
- Men’s Leading
(Excuse my cramped space - I am waiting on the dance studio to open up again for autumn. I just didn’t want to keep you waiting.)
You are more than welcome to ask me any questions about the lessons, just like in a real class, so your learning can become truly interactive. The more you ask, the more you will learn!
As mentioned previously, these videos are a work in progress. I want to create the best videos possible for your tuition so I am experimenting with different presentation ideas and techniques - so you might notice the videos changing and progressing. Feel free to make suggestions or ask questions about any material that is unclear.
There are two more videos for the Bossa Nova Beginner Series - a practice with all the elements learnt and a practise to music. These videos will be posted next week and I will also be posting the first video of the Box Rumba Beginners Series - it’s a video extravaganza week! So stay tuned, and happy dancing.
