Brush

Description

Swing your free foot forward (or diagonally forward) from the hip so only the ball tap strikes the floor on the way past, ending with the foot in the air. No weight goes onto the brushing foot.

Breakdown

Practice Tips

• Lift the foot off the floor right after the tap hits; if it stays down too long you get a scrape instead of a clean sound.
• Keep the ankle relaxed and the foot flexed rather than pointed, and let the swing come from the leg.
