## FOCUS
- This lesson introduces the history and basics of Struttin', a dance from Memphis, Tennessee, spanning the 1930s to 1950s, with the goal of starting to learn the dance.
## TIP & TRICKS:
- Dance in close embrace for footwork variations and turning.
- Use a small space as it was traditionally danced in bars.
- Incorporate turns and flashy moves for showmanship in later styles.
- Focus on up-tempo, faster blues music for the dance rhythm.
##REMEMBER
- Struttin' evolved from pre-World War II close embrace to post-war showmanship.
- The dance originated in Memphis and has two distinct generations of styles.
- Check resources for more history, such as Damon Stone's video.

## FOCUS
- This lesson introduces the Struttin' basic step, which is a slow jog or run performed on every beat, focusing on relaxation and a downward pulse.
## TIP & TRICKS:
- Step down on every beat to maintain the rhythm.
- Relax your hips to allow a natural sway as you move.
- Roll through your feet to soften impact and absorb it naturally.
- Keep steps under your body to avoid lifting knees or sending legs back.
- Move forward, backward, or side-to-side freely to find what feels comfortable.
##REMEMBER
- Avoid lifting knees or sending legs back; focus on a downward fold of the leg.
- Use minimal energy to sustain dancing for long periods, as this is the slowest music in the course.
- Prioritize relaxation and comfort to enjoy dancing throughout the night.

## FOCUS
- This lesson focuses on establishing a comfortable and functional partnered connection for strutting, starting with body-to-body connection without arms and then adding arms in a relaxed embrace.
## TIP & TRICKS:
- Start with a close embrace and find body-to-body connection by walking into your partner with forward intention.
- Maintain an athletic posture with space between bellies and legs to avoid kicking or treading on each other.
- Leaders should wrap their right arm around the partner's ribcage comfortably, adjusting for height differences by turning slightly left.
- Followers can flop their arms around the leader's shoulders for a comfortable hug-like connection.
- Try moving the connection forward, backward, side-to-side, and rotating left and right to test stability.
- Communicate with your partner to find a comfortable arm position and adjust as needed for both parties.
##REMEMBER
- Ensure forward intention from both partners to prevent floating apart and avoid compensating by grabbing with arms.
- The connection should be solid between bodies wherever they connect, prioritizing comfort over specific hand placements.
- Maintain an athletic close embrace with space for independent footwork to enhance functionality and safety.
- Use the connection as a foundation for dancing, adjusting movements to maintain comfort and stability throughout.

## FOCUS
- This lesson teaches turns in Struttin' dance, focusing on adding flashy, showy rotations while maintaining proper technique and connection.
## TIP & TRICKS:
- Set up rotation with shuffly steps before releasing into the turn.
- Leaders should pull back with the hand to prevent partners from continuing rotation.
- Followers should maintain rotation in the hips and keep a down pulse in the butt.
- Look into the turn and find your leader to gauge distance for reconnection.
- For height differences, use the 'tulip' technique with elbow facing down.
- Leaders should catch partners around the middle of the forearm, not too close.
##REMEMBER
- The turn originates from post-WWII Memphis dancers adding flashy elements.
- Maintain strut butt throughout the movement for proper energy flow.
- Early connection helps followers understand distance for smooth reconnection.
- The shape involves rotation, turn, and returning to rotation.
- Improvise the turn shape naturally rather than following strict counts.
- Reconnect carefully at faster tempos, especially with the left arm.
