(Bachata) From stiff robot to wave goddess 🌷 Son Nari's one-point magic! The principle behind water-smooth bachata movement in one shot 🚀

“It's not one-two-three and then lean — the swing is going to come from your hips.”

CONTEXTTeaching the basic step, stressing that the movement starts from the hips, not the head or upper body

“It's not that your head goes like this and off it goes — it happens because of your hips.”

CONTEXTCorrecting the illusion that the upper body or head moves first in the wave, explaining that the hips are what cause the movement

“When I move the hips first like that, the move comes out so much more naturally.”

CONTEXTDescribing how the movement got looser once they stopped forcing the neck up and down and started using the hips from the floor up
