Hop Shuffle Hop Scuffle Hop Riffle Hop Stomp Spank

Description

A four-count sequence that hops on the right foot every count while the left foot plays something different each time: a shuffle, then a scuffle, then a riffle, and last a stomp followed by a spank. The stomp hits the whole left foot flat without taking weight, so the right foot carries you all the way through. Thirteen sounds in total.

Practice Tips

• The left foot's pattern changes on every count, so stay one move ahead in your head - know that the scuffle, riffle or stomp is coming before the current pattern ends.
• Keep the hops low and on the ball of the foot; big hops steal the time the left foot needs, especially on the four-sound riffle count.
