What This Module Trains 🎯
In Cha Cha Cha the Suzy Q sits on the syncopation and comes faster.
The Move 🧠
Lesson 1. The step.
- Suzy Q. A Suzy Q is just going to be a cross here: I cross here with my right leg, then I open a little bit here with my left, and I cross again with my right.
- It goes 5 6 7, 8 and 1, five times.
- The up and down variation. We are just going to be going up and down here with the torso.
Lesson 2. The crosses.
- Two Suzy Q's, four crosses on 4, 5 6 7.
- One more Suzy Q back into basic.
How the Drill Runs 🔁
- Five basic Suzy Q's, then down and up.
- Two Suzy Q's, four crosses.
Technique Cues 💡
- Bend those knees.
- Stay on your toes on that back leg.
- Hips on your left diagonal, not the front.
💡 Drill it: Make sure you practise here your crosses and your twist, and remember: stay on your toes, keep your weight a little bit forward, and twist those hips.
