Basic action, it always has six steps:

Step 1: Left foot forward (LF fwd) and toes outward (T outward).

Step 2: RF of the right foot is in place, and the center of gravity moves to the right foot.

Step 3: Turn your left foot to the side and gently backward.

Step 4: Retract your right foot (RF back).

Step 5: Put your left foot in position (LF in position) and shift your center of gravity to your left foot.

Step 6: RF to one side and move forward slightly.

These are the steps of men. Its first, second and third steps are women's fourth, fifth and sixth steps, while its fourth, fifth and sixth steps are women's first, second and third steps.

Foot movements also include knee and hip movements. When the left foot moves forward, the knee relaxes. When the center of gravity reaches the left foot, the knee straightens, while the hip obediently moves to the left, and then the right knee relaxes slightly. When the center of gravity moves back to the right foot, the right knee is straight, and the buttocks move obediently to the right, at which time the left knee is slightly relaxed; When the center of gravity moves laterally to the left foot, the left knee is straight and the left hip is soft.

Expand data dance skills:

1, keep your personal center of gravity stable, and don't use your arms.

In Latin dance, everyone should have their own stable center of gravity, and the lead between them is only a small physical strength. When the body rotates, the axis around it is always the spine. When rumba, the shoulders sink, the center of gravity of the feet goes down the steps, lowering the center of gravity, while the spine goes up to maintain the internal balance of the body.

At this time, we should tighten the inner thighs, hips, abdomen and side waist, so that the twisting of the body will not transfer a lot of strength to the arms, thus affecting the partner's center of gravity.

2. Don't move your elbow to the back of your body, but clip it to your side at most.

When dancing rumba, the woman will hold her right arm and tighten her muscles. If the man gives the woman a backward thrust, the whole body should move backwards instead of swinging the elbow backwards. The backward speed of the woman's body is faster than the force transmission speed of the arm to stabilize the center of gravity of the man's body when he stops pushing.

Similarly, men don't need to tighten their arms when receiving thrust, but they can move their elbows forward slightly when giving women strength.
