The lock is the move that you come back to time and again when locking. A lock is basically a freeze in motion where you stop what you are doing.
You can lock any moves pretty much but the lock is the move it started with so you should know how to do it.
This version is the up lock.
1. Both the arms come up so they are either side of your head. The hands can be open or closed.
2. The arms come down by your side all the way.
3. Both arms move upwards as if pulling something and then before coming up all the way they freeze in position.
When the arms lock into position the arms will be spaced apart, almost in a round shape so someone could step into your arms and it would look like you were holding them.
This lock would normally be done in 2 counts (beats) - 1 for the arms to come up and 1 for the arms to come down and move into lock position.
