Andrea Elpidio - Ipanema Beach Back Spot TurnsWhile in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, Shaka Brown took a moment to teach proper technique for the classic back-spot turn. Back spot turns often confuse developing dancers. Guys, remember to hook on 2 after an open break and ladies, always step between the pattern on. Music used is Hector Lavoe's version of "El Cantante. The instruction for this clip is done in Portuguese, and Andrea Elpidio was gracious in offering her assistance. When you go to Brazil you have to check out Ipanema beach!
