Latin Motion
A characteristic type of hip motion found in the technique of performing a step in Latin and in Rhythm dances. Although it is most visible in the hips, much of the effect is created through the action of the feet and knees. One steps ball-flat, straightens the knee, and the hip shifts to that side.
