The Lead Calesita is one of a series of Calesita self-led on the Lead. However, the Follower may be led to one as well, and there a whole bunch of these too! This particular Calesita is a Lead Back Calesita because the Lead is stepping backward around their Follower. Note that in this version the Lead is stepping toward the Closed Side of the Embrace, there’s also its corollary, where the Lead steps to the Open Side of the Embrace. For a bit more variation there’s also a Lead Forward Calesita, as well as Lead Milonguero Backward Ocho Calesita, all done in parallel OR cross system walking. In the latter case, we believe this is the quintessential ‘cool‘ move! It should be noted that watching someone else do this versus actually learning how do this properly is kind of important. Which is to say follow the link below. If you register (which is free!!!, just scroll down) you can read about the Leading, Following, and Dancing Perspectives which can help you to understand the vocabulary a bit more. But if you subscribe (please) you can see the complete video and more including every video on the site, for one price!
