Hi on behalf of Expert Village I'm Melanie LaPatin and I'm Tony Meredith and we're co-owners of Dance Times Square Studios in NYC we're here to show you how to rumba. Now we're going to add a turn to this so again like before we're going to have the box turning for the man and the steps do not change they are slow quick quick, slow I start back from my second half of my box I'm going to lift my left hand up guide her underneath it and quick quick step forward slow to meet the girl back at the dance position quick quick and complete the second half of the box. It goes one more time like this slow quick quick lift my left hand guide her underneath the arm quick quick step towards the girl quick meet her half way and complete the box quick quick this is really fun to kind of like show her off around the room. Meanwhile maintaining the same technique throughout all the movement slow quick quick under the arm quick quick, slow quick quick, slow quick quick it's a really fun step to do and enjoy this one.
