Dame Y No Le Llegues
Dame Y No Le Llegues starts with a Dame, but the leader changes his mind and goes back to original follower.
Both the leader and followers use the V-step, which is a basic step used in other Rueda moves like Vaciala. In the V-Step, you end up moving to the left or right while maintaining the same direction of your body. It’s a good general move to get the hell out of someone’s way!
- Translation
- Gimmme, but don’t arrive
- Sign
- Sign for vacilia, sign for “no-no-no” (shake index finger)
- Resembles
- Enchufe Y No Le Llegues

- Non-Spanish speaking Canantes have a hard time pronouncing this. Just cram it all together: Dame No-ee-yeg-ah. Think (Manuel) Noriega, without the “r”.
