What This Module Trains 🎯
Two common variations to make your basic step look more interesting.
The Moves 🧠
Lesson 1.
Son Step. On 7, instead of stepping to the front, step to the side on your right leg, then go back, front, side on 1, 2, 3.
- Back, front, side: quick quick slow.
- From the back basic: back on 5, front on 6, open on 7.
- To go back into a basic, step forward on 1.
Lesson 2.
Cross Trip. Cross on 7 with your right instead of stepping to the front, and kick your left leg to the back, like you are tripping over your leg.
- Bend your knee, almost kicking your butt, then step on 1.
- For drama, go down on 1, just not on every basic.
How the Drill Runs 🔁
- Son Step
- Cross Trip
- Son Step from the back
- Cross Trip again
Technique Cues 💡
- Do it continuously, not stop and go.
- Elbows on the side, like you are cradling a baby.
- Really lift your foot up on the trip.
💡 Drill it: bend those knees.
