Travelling Triple Steps

COURSE: Essential Skills

FOCUS: This lesson focuses on the travelling triple step, a dance move involving three steps in two counts, with the goal of practicing controlled and smooth execution without jumping.

TIP & TRICKS:

• Roll your feet during the triple step to maintain control.
• Practice with a cup of liquid to avoid spilling and ensure smooth movements.
• Keep your feet on the floor to control the rhythm with the music.
• Start the triple step with weight on either leg and move in any direction.
• In close embrace, leaders decide the number of steps while keeping movements smooth.

REMEMBER:

• The triple step rhythm is counted as 'one and two' for three steps in two counts.
• Avoid jumping to maintain control and smoothness in the triple step.
• After a triple step, maintain momentum to transition into other moves like walking or basics.
• There are no strict rules for which leg to start on or direction to move in.
• Practice with a partner in close embrace to enhance coordination without spilling liquid.
