Handshake Turns in Merengue Dancing

Hi this is Leslie Sack with expertvillage.com. My website is lesliesack.com. This is Jorge Saucedo, my dance partner. My website is lesliesack.com, and we are dancing merengue. We are going to be doing handshake turns now, right to right. So which it looks like, we are going to start with the basic, and you turn the lady to the right, guys just raise your left arm up. And when she is not looking, switch hands, it's like magic. And then, ladies, as you come through, offer him your left hand, and just keep going around to the right. Okay now it is the guys turn. Guys put their hands over there head. Guys are turning left, and the girls are turning right again. And the way we're going to end it is called a hair comb. It goes one, two, you can comb my hair or he can comb his.
