On behalf of Expert Village my name is Eric Jacobson and I'm Donna Roesel and we are here in Dance Manhattan Studios in New York City to show you and teach you West Coast Swing. Ok followers, we've just been sent out and now we're going to do an underarm pass. Get a nice connection with the gentleman, our free arm is in a comfortable position as if we we're snapping our fingers. And, he's going to give us a nice body lead, meaning, our arm is not going to be jerked we're just going to feel our center wanting to move, and as it does we're going to step with our right foot, one, two, arms comes up into a nice L shaped position. We take our arm over as we dow our triple step, it's the exact same triple step as we did before. And, we're doing right cross left, and we bring our arm down as we turn and we want our right foot, that's our first triple. Our second triple is our anchor triple, we're anchoring away from our partner, and it is left, right, left.
