Description

With your weight on the balls of your feet, lift your heels, scoot forward a little, then drop your heels down at the end of the slide. The heel drop makes the sound, and you can do it with one foot or both.

Practice Tips

  • Keep the balls of your feet on the floor the whole time; the slide should glide, not hop.
  • If the slide feels stiff or short, lift your body upward during the slide so the feet can travel more easily.
