The 'Progressive Movement' and 'Left Box Turn' - Waltz

Today both room 17 and 18 were introduced to the 'Progressive Movement' and the 'Left Box Turn' during their Performing Arts class.  

The 'Progressive Movement' is a variation on the 'Box Step' the students were taught during their last class.  The male lead keeps the dance pair moving forward in the same direction instead of stepping back.

The 'Left Box Turn' consists of 4 half boxes.  With each new half box, both partners pivot 1/4 turn to their left. Four half boxes put together constitute an entire 'Left Box Turn'.

As you will see below the students of room 18 are really coming along with their 'Left Box Turn'.
