## FOCUS 
- This lesson teaches leader variation 2, focusing on incorporating triple steps while walking around, with an option to add a heel scuff for a percussive effect.
## TIP & TRICKS:
- Add a heel scuff by softly scuffing the floor on the way into the triple step.
- Keep the heel scuff quiet in social dances to avoid excessive noise.
- Practice triple steps as triple step, triple step, triple step in normal timing.
- Add or remove triple steps flexibly during the movement.
- Maintain timing and momentum while walking around with triple steps.

##REMEMBER
- The heel scuff should be a soft, quietly percussive action.
- Followers should stay on their axis to keep it simple.
- The variation does not necessarily change the timing or momentum.
- Come out of the movement just like normal.
- Practice with a song to integrate the steps smoothly.
