How Do You Dance A Belly Wrap In East Coast Swing?
East Coast Swing is a fun ballroom dance, but it is fast so it does not take long to perform a lot of different steps. The Belly Wrap is an East Coast Swing step that is very common and easy. Men who like to turn generally love this pattern. During this pattern, the man turns to his left, wrapping his arm around his belly. The lady either dances in place or dances around him to make his turn easier and make the step more interesting. Place your left arm across your belly as you turn left and take a triple step—step-together-step—to the left, starting with your left foot, on counts one-and-two. If you want the lady to dance in place while you make a complete turn, do not pull on her when you put your arm across your belly. If you want her to dance around you, pull on her slightly to send her past your right shoulder and behind your back while you turn. In either case, keep your hand at her waist level and take your right arm over your left so it does not become trapped. Continue turning
