And how if we are on swing time, we're going one, uh, two, right? It's back out here, right? If we're on march time, we're going one and two, right? So, get that away from the camera. Right. Um, and we play with some rhythm. We went one, two, three, and four, five, and seven and eight. One and two, three, four. But we changed our expression of it to go one, two, three, and four. Leads dropping their weight onto their left, follows right. We come up underneath and step and step and step. Rock step. So that becomes one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. Cool. Excellent. Then we did sweeps. We did sweeps, right? One, two, three, and four. One, two. Good. Yes. And we did hesitation. One, a three, four. One, two. And then we played with that and said, "Yes." Then some fun with the Lindy Hop. One, two. Old Frankie (Manning) favorite. Five, six, seven, eight. And with that follows, you can style. One, three, and four. One, two.
