Description

Shuffle the free foot (brush forward, spank back), then drop the heel of the supporting foot. The heel lands on the beat, and your weight stays on the supporting foot, so the shuffling foot is still free.

Practice Tips

  • Stay up on the ball of the supporting foot during the shuffle so the heel has somewhere to drop from.
  • When you repeat it, don't start the next shuffle straight after the heel. Give the heel its own space in the count.
