molinetes.  Freezing without spiraling out of the gancho.  Voguing.  I had to 
tell them all they they were still responsible for dancing to the music

gancho, they weren't as bad and could do the gancho more fluidly.  
 
Too often women don't realize how much they can contribute or restrict the 
dance.
