Description

A cramp roll in which both ball steps become flaps. Flap onto the ball of the right foot, flap onto the ball of the left, then drop the right heel and then the left heel. Six sounds, finishing with your weight on both flat feet.

Practice Tips

  • If the second flap rushes in, lift the left foot higher before it brushes so it has time to travel.
  • Keep both heels up through the two flaps; dropping the right heel early squeezes the last two sounds together.
