Enchufla doble pa'ti

The Enchufla doble pa'ti is a fundamental figure within Rueda de Casino, a social dance style originating in Havana, Cuba, during the 1950s ^[1]. As a variation of the standard Enchufla, this figure requires the leader to initiate an initial Enchufla, followed by a tactical block of the follower using the leader's right hand on the follower's left shoulder. This contact prompts the follower to execute a clockwise turn, effectively tracing back toward the starting position before the pair concludes with a second Enchufla transition. The movement relies on the characteristic call-and-response structure of Rueda, where pairs form a circle and execute moves in response to a caller's verbal cues ^[1]. While the term Enchufla colloquially denotes a variety of turn patterns, the 'doble' variation is classified as a beginner-level move that emphasizes the maintenance of connection through the shoulder block. The figure integrates the rhythmic footwork of Cuban son and mambo with the structured partner-dance formations typical of the genre ^[1].
