DAN CALLOWAY: The Samba begins by the woman rolling out and rolling in.
That is 5-and-a-6, 7-and-a-8 and a reverse roll. Slow quick quick slow quick quick slow.
Back rock slow quick quick slow quick quick slow
and a plat 1-2-a-3-and-4, 1-2-a-3-and-4.
Spot volta 1-a-2. Corta Jacka 1-2-and-3-and-4-and 1-2-and-3-and-4-and.
Criss cross voltas 1-a-2-a-3-a-4.
Circular volta 1-a-2-a-3-a-4.
Maypole 1-a-2-a-3-a-4.
We end in rolling off the arm position, so we roll out 1-and-a-2, and in 1-and-2.
Shadow position section starting with Cruzados Walks and Locks 1-2-3-and-4, 1-2-3-and-4.
Right foot volta using drop volta timing 1-hold-2-a-3-a-4.
Two whisks 1-a-2-3-a-4.
Three Contra Bota Fogos 1-a-2, 1-a-2, 1-a-2.
The last one ends in a (inaudible) position latin cross.
From here we dance a three step turn diagonal wall.
I've done this at a corner but let me do it again not at a corner so its clearer.
So here are the three bota fogos 1-a-2, 1-a-2, 1-a-2,
now the traveling volta into the Natural Roll.
1-and-2 slow quick quick slow quick quick slow quick quick slow quick quick.
Promenade and Counter Promenade Runs 1-and-2, 1-and-2, 1-a-2, one more 1-and-2.
Now the traveling spin, the lady's three step turn into the Traveling Locks 1-and-2.
First traveling lock 1-and-2, 3-and-4, 5-and-6, 7-and-8.
Then the Criss Cross Voltas 1-a-2-a-3-a-4.
From there we are ready to start over again into the Reverse Roll
slow quick quick slow quick quick
One crazy mistake I made
after the Corta Jacka I danced the Criss Cross Voltas which was four counts
and that timing should be 1-hold-2-a-1-a-2-a-3-a-4
for a total of six counts the first being held for two beats.
