From the ribgage to the head. If a line were to continue up the spine and through the head. Where would yours go and in which direction are you looking. I am looking over the ladies head and a line to the back would go to where the wall joins the ceiling.
Last. I would never do as I say without looking for myself.

Remember, you have to have a healthy gut to ballroom dance. If not, you will be sluggish.

LGS therapy works.

I've been dancing now for over 30 years and one comment that my old dance teacher used to say is that the contact between partners should be "titty to tie" (as the lady's right bust should be in contact with the gentleman's tie).

I think its a catchy phase thats always stuck in my mind all these years later.

Jackie. I like that. T to T.except the lady nowdays is a bit further to the mans right. So its practically RT to RT. As I am always saying . Go and look for yourself and see how the best dancers stand.

Hi - the contact points are wrist, elbow, rib, hip, knee and ankle.

If you have too many boobs they are going to touch.It has been this way for many years, but most female instructors won't do full body contact for new students.

Happy dancing

!!!
