RUMBA BASICS AND SIDE ROCKS
1Step back on right foot
2Step left foot in place (or slightly back)
3Step right foot forward
4Hold and sway hip to right*
5-7Step left foot next to right foot and rock weight onto left-right-left with hip sways
8Hold and complete hip sway to left*
9Step back on right foot
10Step left foot in place (or slightly back)
11Step right foot forward
12Hold and sway hip to right*
None of the "spare" counts are actually "holds." They are really follow-throughs, with hip action, of the previous step -- although the step occurs on "count 3" the movement in effect finishes at the end of count 4. In other words, the whole dance should have smooth continuity rather than stopping and starting.
HALF TURNS
1-2Basketball or pivot turn with left foot lead (turning right), step right
3-4Step left foot forward, hold and sway hip to left* (see above)
5-6Basketball or pivot turn with right foot lead (turning left), step left
7-8Step right foot forward, hold and sway hip to right* (see above)
SIDE STEPS AND ¼ TURN
1Step left foot to left side
2Slide right foot toward left foot
3Rock back on right foot
4Step left foot in place (recover)
5Step right foot to right side
6Slide left foot toward right foot
7Rock back on left foot
8Step right foot in place (recover)
9Step left foot across right foot** (see below)
10Turn ¼ to left on left foot and step back on right foot
11Step back on left foot
12Hold and sway hip to left* (see above)
The crossover on step 9 tends to flow better if the dancer allows the body to follow the foot (face the right corner).
REPEAT
