Enchufe Complicado
Enchufe Complicado has many regional variations. Ours looks a lot like Adios Con La Hermana with a Mechanismo Interior, which is just an extra enchufe with a J-Hook turn. It looks really nice and can be danced in Salsa.

| 5,6,7 | Step back with right, pivot on left, step. Hold right arm up a little | Step in place, but keep your left hand up to trace a line around leader’s belt line. That keeps a tenuous connection |

- Notes
- This variation seems to have originated in Syracuse with Brian Bromka. He also coined the term Mechanismo Interior, which shows up in other moves like Sententa Cubana.
