22 Foot Fans%3A Solo

COURSE: Swinging Triplets

FOCUS: This lesson focuses on incorporating a triple rhythm into footwork with a fancy heel fan variation, building on basic steps to add style and control.

TIP & TRICKS:

• Start with weight on the right foot and sequence left, right, left, right, left, right.
• On the third step, use the heel instead of the entire foot, opening it outward for a fan effect.
• Put weight on the heel to maintain control and avoid moving too quickly back.
• Adjust the fan size from small to large, allowing the body to open diagonally or stay twisted forward.
• Practice with music to refine timing and style, experimenting with different fan techniques.

REMEMBER:

• The heel fan adds flair by opening the heel outward during the triple rhythm sequence.
• Weight distribution on the heel is crucial for stability and control in the movement.
• Body positioning can vary, from opening diagonally to isolating with a twist for different effects.
• Experiment with fan size and body alignment to personalize the step and enhance expression.
• Use music to guide practice and identify effective variations for a fun and engaging performance.
