Slow Comb: Notes

For a faster, more dramatic, variation the man can go from being stepped away from the lady to both having arms on shoulders — the man leads and releases (throws) the lady's right hand onto his left shoulder, whilst he places his hand on (or behind) the lady's left shoulder.

During the combs, the man can lead the lady to walk with him, either backwards / forwards. One useful lead is to have the lady's right hand combed onto the front of the man's shoulder with her fingers cupped over it — this means that the man can lead the lady to walk away / towards him with the pressure of his shoulder against her hand.
