Dancing a reverse weave from promenade, should the feet pass under the body on all steps. How do you make the turns to get maximum sway .Thanks Dave

cdroe. Which dance . If it is a Waltz International Style there is no Sway. If it is Foxtrot also from a Promenade Position there is sway to the L. on 3 and 4. Sway to the R. on 6 and 7. Amount of turn. A 1/4 of a turn to the left between 2 and 3 An 1/8 between 3 and 4. Make 3/8 of a turn to the L. between 5 and 8. The steps in all dances are underneath your hip line
The amounts of turn differs in the Waltz. 3/8 to the L. between 2 and 4. And a 1/4 between 5 and 6. Do not try to turn the lady square too abruptly at the end of step 1. The man should lead the lady to move more sideways on step 2.
All of this is of course straight from the technique book. This is what I like about these questions. It makes a person research after which I will not forget.

This might be too low level discussion for the big three or four of the thread, but the question appears to be originated from a beginner.

Serendipity wrote or quoted from the manual- ‘The man should lead the lady to move more sideways on step 2.'

I do not think the following is an uncorrectable error even if not 100% technically correct per the manual.

Dot says the man needs not to lead as much as to just to take a shorter step and allow her to pass and not step across and block her dance line In other words, her step 2 is more aggressive than the man's. In fact she prefers a lead on steps 1 and 3 but almost none on step 2. This may be a personal preference but stresses this leading to the new men she teaches.

Is she wrong?
