More milonga …
April 24, 2008 by noseintheair
More milonga variations from Carina:
Sidestep (l), (r) forward and back in double time before the next figure.
Sidestep left with left, then placing the right forward past (l); and drawing the right back; forming a cross. Then the left brought from behind to the right, then the left back, forming a cross … and stepping out.
Stepping left with left, right forward, collecting; pivoting back on the right before completing the “box.”
Doing the “middle”steps of any milonga variation in double time but stepping out 4-5-6 in normal tempo.
STEP TOGETHER. COLLECT. STEP TOGETHER. COLLECT.
Practice the practice “zigzag” walks; alternating R. or L. The “walking secada” as well. Stomping the first beat helps establish the start of the next figure. STEP TOGETHER.
