RIGHT brain v LEFT Brain

Is she turning clock-wise or anti-clockwise? CLICK ON THE IMAGE TO SEE HER TURN!

If clockwise, then you use more of the right side of the brain and vice versa.

Most of us would see the dancer turning anti-clockwise though you can try to focus and change the direction; see if you can do it.
