Description

Step on the right foot, shuffle the left, leap onto the left foot, then tap the right toe tip on the floor behind the left heel. The weight ends on the left foot, and the other side starts on the left. It makes five sounds.

1. Step
2. Shuffle
3. Leap
4. Toe Tip

Practice Tips

• Don't rush. The shuffle and the final toe tip both tend to arrive too early, so let each sound land in its own place in the count.
• Cross the toe tip clearly behind the supporting heel and play it with confidence. It is the accent that finishes the step.
