## FOCUS 
- This lesson introduces a triple step variation in footwork, focusing on changing the rhythm while maintaining relaxation and posture from previous techniques.
## TIP & TRICKS:
- Practice the triple step rhythm as 'dakida, dakida' to get it in the body or ears.
- Mix between triple steps and the strutting basic, starting to travel around the room.
- Think about a 'down feeling' during the triple step to emphasize the foot under the hips.
- Try letting the middle foot of the triple step slide out to the side or back diagonal for styling.
- Keep the same jogging feel throughout, as if doing the same step twice on one foot.

##REMEMBER
- All previous techniques like relaxation and posture apply; only the foot rhythm changes.
- There is no prescripted number of triple steps; improvise based on the music and inspiration.
- The triple step is independent and can be added whenever desired, including with a partner.
- Focus on the foot that is stepping as the main foot, keeping it under the hips for stability.
- Options include strutting basics, triple steps under the body, and slidey styling for variation.
