Woman: Hi, so now that we're going to show you the front ocho.

Man: It's an ocho because you make an 8 figure on the floor.

Woman: We're going to take the front ocho from the basic step. So I'm going to begin with the basic forward, side, back, back, cross, and from here I'm going to set the front ocho. I'm going to shift my weight to the left and pivot on my left keeping my chest looking at my partner and my hips facing the next direction. I'm going to step forward.

As you come around change weight and you continue to resolution.

Woman: With your partner to across and from here, turn your shoulders counterclockwise, step, lead your partner, step.

Man: It's moving your feet together because this gives your partner time to pivot. You can do as many of these as you issues, preferably no more than two of them. Three is pushing it. And you have a resolution. Let's take a look at this from another angle. We have from the basic, back, all the way to the cross. Make sure you uncross her first, then you step with her, feet together for both of you. Once you step here, there's a change of weight and then
