Traditional Quadruple Time Step

Description

Shuffle the right foot, hop on the left, shuffle the right again, step onto the right ball and drop its heel, then flap the left and step back onto the right. It is the triple time step with a heel added after the step. The weight ends on the right foot, so the next phrase mirrors it on the other side starting on count 4 (shuffle 4&, hop 5, and so on).

Practice Tips

• Hold the right heel up until the step has sounded. Dropping it early merges the step and heel into one sound.
• The second shuffle has very little time after the hop; lift the foot slightly higher so it doesn't start early.
