We have at least 10 major types of Dile Que No, as can be seen above, but many of these ten figures have substantial variations. Take the most common DQN as example. The Leader can lead the Follow into Open Position, or the Lead can make the Follow continue forwad on 7-1, leading her around him, back inside infront of him, or back outside infront of him or into a Paseo Walk. It is safe to say, that we have more than 20 major Dile Que No variations.
The most important are Dile Que No, Dile Que No Mentira, Paseo Dile Que No, Cross Body Lead. A Paseo Walk, where the Lead turns on 1-2 and steps back on 3-5 making the Follow pass him, is very similar to Cross Body Lead.
