Cross Body Double Right Turn (CB2RT)

Cross Body Double Right Turn is a Cross Body Lead with a pivot and a 3/4 Right Turn. The Follower makes actually 1.5 turns to the right. See for more information Cross Body Right Turn.

Advanced definition: Partnering Dance Technique. It means a Cross Body Lead with a Double Right Turn for the Followers. The correct description should be: a Cross Body Lead with a Forward Walking Turn (Lazy Turn) (r), a Backwards Walking Turn (r), and a Forward Walking Turn (r) for the Follower.

The Leader makes the same dance steps as the ones he makes when he's dancing a regular Cross Body Lead (see "Cross Body Lead"). The Follower also makes the same dance steps as a regular CBL up to the 3rd count. The Leader brings his leading hand (Pressure Hand Connection) towards the head of the Follower and in between them thus preparing her shoulder line to start turning (Follower 3rd Dance Position) (3rd count). He starts leading her with his leading hand away from him, and the Follower starts to make a Forward Walking Turn (Lazy Turn) (r) (4th count).

The Leader continues to lead the Follower with the Pressure Hand Connection and she finishes her Lazy Turn (Follower 4th Dance Position) (5th count). He brings his leading hand towards himself and the Follower makes a Backwards Walking Turn (r) (Follower 3rd Dance Position) (6th count). The Leader continues to lead the Follower for her to make a Forward Walking Turn (r) and end in a 3rd Dance Position (7th count) (On1).

The motion for leading the turns comes from his leading elbow, and NOT from turning his wrists around or by grabbing her fingers! The footwork of the Follower for a CB2RT is a "mirror image" of the footwork she makes when dancing a Cross Body Turn (see "Cross Body Turn").
