The Arm Jive, Push Spin starts like steps 1–3 of the Arm Jive.

4: (Twist left, to palm to palm)

The man leads the lady to rotate 90o anticlockwise (with weight on her left leg) — by pushing her left hand slightly with his right hand, pulling her right hand slightly with his left hand and modifying the left grip to be palm-to-palm grip to indicate that the lady will be led into a spin — as he rotates 90o anticlockwise (with weight on his left leg).

5: (Spin the lady)

The man leads the lady to spin 360+o clockwise (with weight on her right leg) — by releasing her right palm after pushing it slightly with his left palm and releasing the lady's left hand from his right hand — as he spins slightly clockwise (with weight on his right leg).

6: (Catch, and step back)

The man typically catches the lady's hands in a double handhold, or catches the lady's right hand in either his left or right hand. The man leads the lady to finish the spin (placing weight onto her left foot as a brake and then stepping back on her right leg) — by pushing her hand(s) slightly with his hand(s) — as he moves backwards.

7: (Finish)
