Buck Single Time Step

Description

Stomp the right foot without taking weight, hop on the left, step onto the right, flap the left, then step onto the right again. That is one side (counts 8 through 3&). Your weight finishes on the right, so the next time step mirrors it: stomp left on 4, hop right on 5, and so on. Some teachers add a spank right after the stomp, and it is often counted with a swing (8 1 2 a3 a).

Practice Tips

• Only the stomp should be flat; stay on the balls of the feet with heels lifted for every other sound.
• Make sure the stomp really lands flat. Letting the heel hit first turns it into a dig and changes the sound.
