This refers to a dance move called "ocho cortado" in Tango. The move has five different options for both the leader and follower, and each option includes embellishments. The ocho cortado involves the leader interrupting the follower's forward motion and redirecting them into a cross or side step. The embellishments add flair and complexity to the move, and there are options for both the leader and follower to add their own style and personality to the dance.
