Heel

Description

With your weight on the ball of the foot, lift the heel and drop it straight down so the heel tap hits the floor. The front of the foot stays on the ground, so your weight does not move to the other foot.

Practice Tips

• Press down a little before you let the heel fall so the sound has some force behind it, rather than rolling back onto the heel.
• Drop the heel sharply but stay relaxed in the knee - a clean heel should sound solid without jarring your leg.
