D - Canyengue/ Orillero

This style is characterized by playfulness with the rhythm and beats [2/4] of the songs - stop and go. The embrace is done with leader's left hand down below the toro and cheek to cheek in V-offset. The constant torso contact and shared axis are typical to this style. The knees are bent and the tango walk is not smooth and is comprised of small steps. The lead is done with the right arm just above the waist.
