20 Swinging Triplets%3A Follower Variation

COURSE: Swinging Triplets

FOCUS: This lesson teaches followers to add triplet rhythms in their footwork while maintaining connection with leaders, who step only on the beat to practice control and rhythm variation.

TIP & TRICKS:

• Leaders should step every beat and avoid doing triplets themselves.
• Followers can add triplets in footwork wherever desired during moves.
• Focus on the center of the body moving as led, not letting feet lead.
• Practice with a slow song to have ample time for experimentation.

REMEMBER:

• Maintain the same weight shift as if stepping every beat to keep connection consistent.
• The center should follow the leader's lead, with feet adding rhythm as an extra layer.
• Avoid letting footwork disrupt the lead or cause big, distracting steps.
