Because the dance line is required to be anticlockwise, the landing trajectory of the footprints in the left turn should be more than 180 degrees to be an anticlockwise dance line.
The lock step in step 3 is to have the left foot over the right foot, running towards a trajectory of more than 180 degrees.
Not only should the 3rd step be locked, the 2nd step should at least exceed, reach or approach 180 degrees in the forward direction for the 3rd step to be over 180 degrees, if the 2nd step is too far behind the 180 when it lands, the 3rd step will not be able to exceed the 180 even if it is locked, and the line of the dance can not be anti-clockwise.
With the popularity of fitness dance among the public, the social dance can also be popularized among the public. Social dance can not only make you in the dance to get happy, but also can increase the socialization, the establishment of friendship. However, in order to learn to dance well, it is important not to rush into the dance.
