Zydeco Dance Steps / Back to Back

Lead:
This open position move is started on the "slow" or first count where the lead brings his partners right hand accros his and her body as she is turning 180 degrees CCW and he turns 180 degrees CW. Both partners end up with their backs touching and with the leads right hand you can either grab her hip or her hand to keep her and your backs connected as you dance regular Zydeco steps. To get out of this move after the slow on the guys left foot, slowly turn your and your partners bodys back to the standard open postition. If your a counter you would go into this on one and out of it on about.

Lead:
This open position move is actually a "lead and follow" step where the guy will slowly lead your body to turn 180 degrees CCW where your backs will be against each other while your still doing the basic step. He will also grab your hip or your hand with his right hand so you stay with him back to back until he lets go with his left hand and you both turn 180 back to the normal open position. The move is normally gotten into on the slow on the guys left/ gals right foot and gotten out of on the slow on the follows right foot or around the 3rd count.
