clockwise route ?

I am fond of Luca's dancing . They put a lot of color into their dances.
Now, I am learning their lesson video clip on the net .( progressive chasse & quick open reverse turn... ( quickstep, Art in Motion ))
I am not sure what I looked: the dance route is clockwise which commences (man) backing -LOD, parallel to -DC.
Rhythm :& SqqS
(with more forward feeling, lady almost backs LOD on first q and backs DC on second S ).
{group I: progresseive chasse to left /quick open reverse turn /progressive chasse/ cross chasse/ natural turn ( OP) open impetus; group II: progressive chasse to left / 3 quick open reverse turn (qqqqqqqqsqqs) /progressive chasse/cross chasse.)

Although I tried them (I+ II) facing DC down LOD and let man keep me in front of him to move easy and far, I was aware of that I changed the route. I thought it is better to make sure what I looked and listened if I am going to ask my new coach to dance clockwise route. Please look into this case and correct me. Thanks.

Your best bet is work with your coach ask him anything you want to know.Why take chances of getting second opinion from someone you don't even meet in person.You have access to a coach and I'm pretty sure;it cost you a lot then use it.If you don't trust your coach,then time to get a new one.I hope your coach won't find out that you have doubt on his coaching.Good luck.

The reason:
I have not found one who can explain all I want to know, all of us have limitation or blind points. I learn and ask from any one who likes to share his / her knowledge with others . Birds of a feather flock together generally;
I hope what I translated or said or as a guidance for my practice are correct . My new coach teaches me and learn from me . I don't think it is wrong , even I pay him for taking his lesson. Teaching benefits both party alike. Untill now, the progression is normal. About the clockwise movement , I will tell him I am not sure what I looked, it is better to consult his teacher. but I thought , in showcase , it is OK. Thanks for reply.
