## FOCUS 
- This lesson teaches stomps, a simple move to add attitude to dancing, focusing on technique and styling, including solo and partnered variations.
## TIP & TRICKS:
- Stomp one leg forward and slide it back while keeping the foot connected to the ground.
- Transfer weight onto the stomping leg as you slide it in to release the other leg.
- Use upper body styling, such as twisting towards the stomping leg or leaning back.
- In partnered stomps, lead by going down in your own body without forcing the partner.
- Alternate stomps between legs and vary timing to match the music.

##REMEMBER
- Maintain a relaxed posture with bent knees and connected foot movement.
- Stomps are effective for adding attitude and can be adapted with personal styling.
- In partnered dancing, communicate stomps through body movement rather than direct leading.
- Be musical by aligning stomps with phrasing and alternating with other dance moves.
