Advanced Opening Out

Does anyone happen to know of a video clip (YouTube or similar) that shows (or a routine that incorporates) the Rumba Advanced Opening Out (Closed Hip Twist variant)? I want someone to look at it before a lesson, but can't find one.

There are plenty of examples of the Closed Hip Twist, but I've not found one of anyone dancing the Advanced Opening Out. It is the man's shaping that I want to direct someone to, as the lady's part is largely unchanged from the standard figure.

Telemark. You might take a look at the Bronze Medal Routine by Slavik. He has a Natural Opening Out as well as the Closed Hip Twist.

Hi Telemark,
Just in case you still want a video clip showing the Advanced Opening Out, I saw one danced by Michael Malitowski - showing on You Tube: "rumba- dance with music." He continues into a Continuous Circular Hip Twist.
