So another basic Bachata step, we just learned the side step. Here's the side basic. It goes one, two, thee, four, five, six, seven, eight. The next one we're going to do goes forward and back. So we start forward, and back, forward, and back. Let me break that down. Out of your side basic, now instead of taking your foot to the right, it's just like walking. You're going to walk, walk, walk. Make sure on the third step you come down, plea so that you can do the hip then you're going to walk back, two, three, and. Notice I'm leaving my foot either in front or behind. Watch again, I go walk, walk, walk; I leave the foot behind, do the hip. Walk, walk, walk, leave the foot in front for the hip. So putting it all together out of the basic. Side basic goes one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. Forward, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. That's the forward and back basic.
