Cuddle Wave

What This Module Trains 🎯

The steps are not hard. The work is the vibe: bounce, shoulder, heel.

The Move 🧠

• Cuddle Wave. The cuddle wave is essentially like a pas de bourrée or a drunken sailor, but done with a little bit of a groove and body movement.
• The step is a cross back on 8, and the figure runs 5 6 7, 8 and 1. Slowly: right, left, right, then left, right, left.
• Five in a row: 8 and 1, 2 and 3, 4 and 5, 6 and 7, 8 and 1 2 3.

How the Drill Runs 🔁

1. Just the steps.
2. Bounce and shoulder on top.
3. Then the heel on the music, and run it again.

Technique Cues 💡

• Prep on 6 7 towards your left diagonal. That sets it up.
• Push up on the second step, drop down on the third.
• Body movement comes from the shoulder: roll the left shoulder forward.
• In flat shoes add the heel: step, step, heel.

💡 Drill it: Run the steps until you stop counting, then add the bounce and the shoulder.
