Male Lead steps are combinations of
Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced Basic steps that are done by
the Man while in their Basic or in a lead without affecting
the steps of the Woman.
Remember without the Woman maintaining her Basic and the Beat or
following the Man we would be out their alone. Male Leads
should be done as a compliment to the Woman and not to show off.
Always remember to keep the Woman flowing and look at her, not
your feet. Make your leads gentle but firm and deliberate.
Don't leave them guessing. Make the Woman the focus of
your dance and you will always have a partner.
