Quick step dance practice essentials

Put your feet together, and the feet work towards the ground to generate force source pressure, pushing the center of gravity from the heel to the toe and lifting the heel; the restoration must be controlled by the toes, soles, soles, and heels to fall vertically. Practice this several times.

Attention: The inner edges of the thigh muscles of both legs should be clamped; the knee joints should always remain relaxed (that is, keep the curve of the spine extended and not straight); be sure to apply force to the ground first and then move the center of gravity forward; The upper body should be relaxed and the vertical axis should be upright; after lifting the heels, the muscles behind the thighs should continue to push forward through the gluteus minimus and gluteus maximus to bring the cross-joint into place (that is, completely send it to the toes). Spread your feet apart, buckle your knees inward, and touch the inside of your ankles. Move your center of gravity to one foot. When the center of gravity foot bounces to the position of the other foot, the other foot quickly bounces away.

Note the essentials—when moving, the main foot presses down to push the entire body to the power foot position; always keep the inner soles of the two feet on the ground; the body should keep the vertical axis upright during the entire movement; the awareness should be forward Facing away; the knee joints of both legs should always be relaxed and elastic; the knees and ankles should always be buckled in, and the crotch should always be clamped; the feet should be retracted quickly; the center of gravity should be moved in place; and the center of gravity should be shifted quickly. 1. Changes of movement along the steps (Figure 12-Figure 16. S, Q, Q, S, S) Figure 12 S In the left lateral position, men retreat to the right and women advance to the left. There are sideways and C.B.M.P

Picture 13 Q: The man is crossing to the left, the woman is crossing to the right, walking on the soles of the feet, with an inclination: it becomes a closed position.

Figure 14 Q: The male is on the right side and the female is on the left side. They move on the soles of their feet, gliding at an angle and developing to the right side as they move.

Figure 15 S The male moves forward to the left and the female moves back to the right, turning into the right lateral position when turning sideways.

Figure 16 S: The man steps forward to the right, and the woman steps back to the left. Maintaining the right lateral position, the man steps with his heels and the woman steps with her toes.

2. Open left turn on the outside (Figure 17~Figure 20. S, Q, Q, S)

Figure 17. On the right side of S, the man goes left and the woman goes back Right, male heel and female toe walking. When the support point is transferred to the soles of both feet, rotate 180 degrees to the left while maintaining the posture relationship. Note that at this time, the other leg of both parties should maintain an open posture spread forward and backward, sideways and tilted.

Picture 18. Q: The man retreats to the right and the woman moves to the left. Note that the foot that lands on the ground at this time is the inevitable result of the open style, rather than a deliberate drive. This is the norm and key point to test whether this dance step is correct. The soles of the feet are used for walking, with a slight inclination.

Picture 19. Q: The man retreats to the left and the woman advances to the right. The feet move towards the C.B.M.P. On the right lateral position, continue to tilt.

Figure 20. S The man steps back to the right and the woman moves to the left. She steps with the balls of her feet. Under the guidance of her shoulders, she increases the inclination and turns 135 degrees to the left. Note the male left foot and the female right foot. Keep the front and back open so that you can move forward without moving closer to the center of gravity leg.

3. Four fast runs (Figure 21 ~ Figure 24. Q, Q, Q, Q)

Four fast runs are four foot movements in the right lateral position, three open and one locked. You need to have fast running speed and flow.

Picture 21. Q: The man goes to the left and the woman goes to the right. Figure 22. Q: Men go to the right and women go to the left.

Picture 23. Q: Men advance to the left and women retreat to the right.

Picture 24. Q. Male’s right foot is locked behind his left foot, and female’s left foot is locked in front of her right foot.

4. Forward and reverse step (Figure 25~Figure 27. S, S, S)

This is a change in the direction of movement, and the second step is the turning point.

Picture 25. S The man moves forward to the left, the woman moves back to the right, steps with the soles of her feet, lowers her heels, and lowers her center of gravity. Do it on the right outer side.

Picture 26, S. The man goes to the right, the woman retreats to the left, and the point is the right. On C.B.M.P. The forward flow is buffered and resolved at this step and transformed into backward development. Perform in the off position.

Picture 27. S The man steps back to the left and the woman moves to the right. The man moves with his toes and the woman with her heels. The landing point is still on the C.B.M.P. This step and the previous step should form a dramatic change in the direction of movement, thus creating a unique sense of ambiguity. 5. Take V6 steps back (Figure 28~Figure 33.

Q, Q, S, S, Q, Q)

This is the V-shaped movement change immediately after the reverse interception. The last two steps are actually an electric pattern opening, and the entire rotation progresses from the right outside retreat to the open position.

Picture 28. Q: The man steps back to the right and the woman steps forward to the left. They move on the balls of their feet and have an inclination guided by their shoulders.

Picture 29. Male Q’s left foot is locked in front of his right foot, and female’s right foot is locked behind her left foot. Step on the balls of your feet and continue leaning.

Figure 30. S The man retreats to the right and the woman moves to the left. The center of gravity drops and the shoulders are guided and tilted.

Figure 34-Figure 37 Outside forward lock step (-gt;)

Figure 31. S male retreats to the left, female advances to the right, and turns 90 degrees left in depth C.B.M.P. The center of gravity rises in the second half of the beat.

Figure 32. Q: The man steps back to the right, the woman moves to the left, and moves on the balls of her feet. The male partner continues to turn 90 degrees to the left, and guides the female partner to change to the open position; the overall rhythm of the female partner turning left Down, turn slightly 45 degrees to the right to form an open position.

Figure 33. Q is in the open position, and the man on the left and the woman on the right advance simultaneously. 6. Outside forward lock step (Figure 34 to Figure 37. S, Q, Q, S)

This is a deformation and development of the outside forward lock step. In addition to changes in rhythm and form, there are also changes in the connection method. different. The forward lock step is a movement that is always on the outside position; while the forward lock step develops from the open position to the outside position, with a larger rotational movement.

Picture 34. S The male advances to the right and the female advances to the left. They advance synchronously in the open position and use their heels to move forward. When the center of gravity moves to the soles of the feet, the female partner turns left 135 degrees under the guidance of the male partner to form the right lateral position.

Picture 35. Q is on the right outer side. The man advances to the left and the woman retreats to the right. The steps are performed on the soles of the feet, with an inclination guided by the shoulders.

Picture 36. Q. The male’s right foot is locked behind the left foot, and the female’s left foot is locked in front of the right foot. They move on the soles of their feet and keep leaning.

Picture 37. S The man moves forward to the left and the woman moves back to the right. Maintain the posture, move on the soles of the feet, and lower the center of gravity. The beat of the quick step is 4/4 and the speed is 52 bars per minute. The basic rhythm (same as blues) is: Peng (strong) Cah (weak) Cah (second strong) Cah (weak) | Peng (strong) Cah (weak) )Cha (second strong) Cha (weak) |. The general dance steps are SSQQ*SQQS. The slow step takes up two beats, the fast step takes up one beat. The four regular steps of SSQQ are often used repeatedly in ballroom dance, so they are called fast four steps.
