Enchufe Arriba
Enchufe Arriba starts like Enchufe but the leader goes for the follower on the left instead of the right. If you think of most Rueda change partner moves as going downstream (counter-clockwise), this is just going upstream (clockwise).
- Translation
- Plug in Above
- Sign
- Enchufe sign, then point upstream (which will be either left or right depending where you are in the circle. Just move in the direction the Cantante is pointing.)
- Resembles
- Enchufe, Adios Arriba
Note in the video it’s unclear how Enchufe Arriba is different since it’s only two followers and you end up with the same partner.

- Notes
- Getting on the left hand side of the upstream follower requires speed. Step lively!
