Description

Lift the foot and set it down on the ball (the front pad) and put your weight on it, keeping the heel off the floor. It makes one sound with the toe tap and is a weight change, just like walking on the balls of your feet.

Practice Tips

  • Keep the heels lifted and fix your eyes on a point in front of you if you feel wobbly.
  • Land cleanly on the ball of the foot with your weight - a sliding or tiptoe landing muddies the sound.
