FOCUS

  • This lesson teaches the stomps and kick ball change moves, focusing on combining them with contrasting energy and enjoying the simplicity of the steps.

TIP & TRICKS:

  • Stand with feet under hips, weight on left, and slide the right leg out and back in for stomps.
  • For kicks, direct energy through the heel and down into the ground, not out through the toes.
  • Keep the kicks light and small, with a rhythm of 'one and two' for the kick ball change.
  • Groove in the body, shake shoulders or butt, and smile to enjoy the simplicity of the moves.
  • Join stomps and kick ball change together, practicing two sets with a contrast between heavy stomps and light kicks.

##REMEMBER

  • Maintain low weight and energy in the body with a forward posture during stomps.
  • Use the sole of the foot on the floor to feel and scrape during slides and stomps.
  • Contrast the heavy, grounded stomps with the light, small kicks for dynamic movement.
  • Enjoy the simplicity of the moves by adding personal flair and body groove.
