Vacílala

Vacílala: Cuban & Rueda de Casino Dance Technique. Vacilala means "Play with her"/"Make her look beautiful".

An Open Break (see "Open Break") with the Left to Right Hand Hold (see "Hand Holds") after which the Leader "throws away" the arm of the Follower down, to the right, and behind her back. The Follower makes a Freeturn using the Son Basic (see "Son Basic") during the second half of the Basic. The Leader makes a 1/2 Enchufe (see "Half Enchufe") or a rev-CBL (see "Reversed Cross Body Lead). During the Rueda de Casino the Leader will continue to grab the next Follower and execute a DQN (see "Dile Que No"). He can do the Vacílala with different Hand Holds.
