Hi Rachel,
They lined us all up looking straight ahead at a mirrored wall. The basics of it were step forward on right, left, right and spin. Left, right, left and spin.
Arms
Obviously arms in - go faster, out slows you down. And, up and straight out at shoulder level going to in either arms straight down or bent and pulled in speeds up the spin.
Spotting
I can't emphasise this enough. Whether it's a spot on the wall in practice or partners eyes while dancing. It's a must to regain alignment in between multiple spins.
Other points
Step into, and rise up into each spin.
On ball of foot.
Knee almost ever so slightly bent. This straightens the spine - apparently!!
Hope this helps?!
