<p>FOCUS: This lesson focuses on followers improvising with shuffle rhythms independently while leaders maintain a steady triple basic, aiming to enhance musicality and connection without mirroring each other's movements.</p>
|

<p>TIP & TRICKS: <ul>
|

<li>Followers should stay relaxed and keep the connection in their arms loose while changing rhythms underneath.</li>
|
||||
<li>Listen to the music's phrasing and change between triple and shuffle rhythms at appropriate eight-count sections.</li>

|

<p>REMEMBER: <ul>
|

<li>Weight transfer differs between triple and shuffle rhythms, but it's okay if bodies get off sync as long as the connection stays relaxed.</li>

|
||||
<li>The groove and music's flow keep partners connected even when movements are not mirrored.</li>

<p>TIP & TRICKS: <ul>

<li>Practice the triplet rhythm in the feet with steps like 'step and a step' to get the groove.</li>
|

<li>Dig into the ground as you step, keeping the foot directly under the body and the body pitched forward.</li>

|

|

<li>Breathe and maintain a relaxed pace to feel the rhythm in your body without rushing.</li>

<li>Keep the body positioned as if ready to start a race, with forward pitch for better balance and style.</li>

|
||||
<p>FOCUS: This lesson focuses on teaching leaders how to perform cross steps in Chicago Triple, emphasizing isolation of connection points to maintain dance quality and flow without leading followers into variations.</p>
|
||||
<p>TIP & TRICKS: <ul>
|
||||
<li>Isolate your arm from your body when crossing forward or back to avoid pulling the follower.</li>
|
||||
<li>Keep steps small and under your body during cross steps.</li>
|
||||
<li>Start crossing on the one count to maintain rhythm and timing.</li>
|
||||
<li>Maintain a soft, relaxed arm connection with your partner.</li>
|
||||
<li>Experiment with crossing forward or back on either leg while rotating clockwise.</li>
|
||||
<li>Use compression to cross back with the left foot and stretch to cross forward with the right.</li>
|
||||
</ul></p>
|
||||
<p>REMEMBER: <ul>
|
||||
<li>Leaders should isolate connection points to prevent leading followers into unintended variations.</li>
|
||||
<li>Maintain the aesthetic, pulse, and groove of Chicago Triple throughout the dance.</li>
|
||||
<li>Followers provide feedback through their body to help leaders adjust their isolation.</li>
|
||||
<li>Cross steps can be performed in any direction, adapting to the dance's flow and energy.</li>
|
||||
<li>Quality of movement is prioritized over complexity in cross step variations.</li>
|
||||
<li>Practice crossing with both legs to build versatility and natural movement.</li>

|
||||
- This lesson focuses on teaching leaders how to perform cross steps in Chicago Triple, emphasizing isolation of connection points to maintain dance quality and flow without leading followers into variations.
|
||||
## TIP & TRICKS:
|
||||
- Isolate your arm from your body when crossing forward or back to avoid pulling the follower.
|
||||
- Keep steps small and under your body during cross steps.
|
||||
- Start crossing on the one count to maintain rhythm and timing.
|
||||
- Maintain a soft, relaxed arm connection with your partner.
|
||||
- Experiment with crossing forward or back on either leg while rotating clockwise.
|
||||
- Use compression to cross back with the left foot and stretch to cross forward with the right.
|
||||
|
||||
##REMEMBER
|
||||
- Leaders should isolate connection points to prevent leading followers into unintended variations.
|
||||
- Maintain the aesthetic, pulse, and groove of Chicago Triple throughout the dance.
|
||||
- Followers provide feedback through their body to help leaders adjust their isolation.
|
||||
- Cross steps can be performed in any direction, adapting to the dance's flow and energy.
|
||||
- Quality of movement is prioritized over complexity in cross step variations.
|
||||
- Practice crossing with both legs to build versatility and natural movement.
