So, we're learning the Bachata basics. We just learned the left turn, got to go on the right. Got to do the right turn, too. With the right turn, let's come out of a basic just so we're not starting out of nowhere. It goes, right, left, right, here's my basic, five, six, seven, here's the turn step, right, left, right, and, left, right, left, and. So let me break that down. Our basic, nothing changes, step, step, step, hip. Now coming into this right turn, you're going to step right. Starting into the turn, you do half a turn, step left, half a turn, step right, bring that foot in, plia, ready for the hip. And, then we continue finish out the basic, left, right, left. Let's smooth it out now. Again, stepping one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. That's the basic Bachata right turn.
