Arumba is done with flat feet, but dancers should rise to the ball of the weighted foot during pivots. Steps should be small, and shoulders should remain quiet throughout the dance.
"Out With A Bang" ends with a break on count #7. Dancers should end dance on the 7th count of the beginning of the last round as they step back onto the right foot during the box pattern.
