Question: What are some of the best Latin ballroom lifts/tricks to try for couples where the follow is taller and/or heavier? Assuming both are fit and trained dancers. Names of moves and links to demo videos much appreciated. Thanks!
 
I know a smooth couple that had a trick (sort of) where the shortish lead would kneel down, and the follower sort of leaned down towards him in an arabesque. Bad description, but it was very pretty. IMO a lot of drops, as long as you can safely DO them, will even out the height difference (since the follower is "dropping" lower).
