Contra Body Movement
Enhance your ballroom dancing with Contra Body Movement! 🌟
CBM is the twist of your torso bringing the opposite side of the body toward the moving foot on forward and backward steps. Contra Body Movement is a natural body movement used while walking. In ballroom dancing, use CBM to initiate turn, aid progression, and to add style to your dancing.
Here’s how to do it:
- Left Foot Forward: When stepping forward with your left foot, twist your torso left.
- Right Foot Forward: When stepping forward with your right foot, twist your torso right.
- Left Foot Backward: When stepping backward with your left foot, twist your torso bringing your right shoulder back.
- Right Foot Forward: When stepping backward with your right foot, twist your torso bringing your left shoulder back.
Incorporate CBM to make your turns more fluid and your dancing more expressive. Happy dancing! 💃🕺
