In this next clip, we're going to be taking you on to a quarter turn, so you can turn as you're dancing around the dance floor. Because not all dance floors dance are danced as a straight runway. The main objective behind a quarter turn is a quarter turn every dance step. So, as you?re dancing, you're going to shift your weight and the same thing with the upper body. The gentleman's right hand is going to pull gently on the lady's shoulder, as well as guiding her with the left hand, and you're going to dance quarter turn for every dance Polka step. And. one, two, three, two, two, three, three, two, three, four, two three. So, as you can see with that, you made one complete turn for four basic Polka counts. We'll just show that again. And, one, two, three, two, two, three, three, two, three, four, two three.
