A summary with time codes : 2:20 At the beginning of the bar energy and power; at the end more time, emotion, extra stretch 5:00 Continous swing, no break 6:28 Not slowing too soon; slowing in the high position; "let it go" 7:30, 9:20 Exercise: man creates stretch from the centre; arms go with the lady. To be used on step 2 of natural turn, etc 10:15 Stretching to right, let the lady do it; to left, man can stretch away 11:20 Energy goes forwards in the stretch 11:37 Spin turn. At the same time as the stretch, the man invites the lady to move forwards. Her head delays and comes later. 14:19 In moving forward the lady creates energy to use for the next drive 17:25 Natural fallaway and slip pivot. Quicker steps must be smaller. Again, power at the beginning, time at the end of the bar. 20:15 The connection from body to the arms. Arms follow the body. Not starting from the arms. 22:32 Left whisk. Enter with man's centre moving backwards (like hover corte, throwaway oversway, etc). Do the stretch. Not too much rotation. 25:20 Exit to PP. Rise with foot pressure and stretch. Different possibilities for style, using body and communication. 26:08 Open natural turn. Man must not stretch like the lady. 27:27 Faster from the 1 to the 2, on the 2 spend the time. 28:34 Natural fallaway. On the 2, rise, spend the time, stretch from centre and give arms.
It was explained to me like this : in the traditional, English style the rotation causes the swing; in the modern, Italian style the swing causes the rotation. The objective of the "modern" version is more amplitude and dynamism. Would a good example of the traditional style be Warren and Kristi Boyce (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-b-5GDLwRNxw.html) ?
10:30, to R open the lady, to L man open himself. Hands belong to the partner, to support. No pulling. Energy goes forward to the partner, top line stretched back.
