Description

Do a spank step (spank backward, then step onto the ball of that foot), then drop the heel of the same foot. Three sounds, ending with your weight flat on the foot that spanked.

Practice Tips

  • Lift the foot slightly right after the spank so it doesn't drag along the floor.
  • Keep the heel up on the step and drop it separately so you hear three distinct sounds, not two.
