Why you must include a twirl (or two, or three!) in your first dance

This section will take you approximately 15 minutes to complete.

Twirling is my favorite!

I guarantee that as soon you do a twirl, your guests will start cheering you on, or will be so impressed that they will come up to you after your dance and tell you how amazing it was.

Ya’ll, the bar is low.

The turn I will teach you in this section is my favorite for several reasons:

  1. It is easy to learn and easy to do,
  2. It goes with every style of music and can be used later on in the night,
  3. It's a great step to build on for other steps that you may learn in this course, or later on in life
  4. It is just so stinking pretty.

I've decided to include it here, even though it is not used in the final choreography, so you have more tools in your dancing toolbox. If you like this turn and want to include it, try replacing every other promenade with a single counterclockwise turn!
