Y-step

This page, which describes the move known as a Y-step, is part of the Turnstep Dictionary at www.turnstep.com.

A Y-step starts by stepping up wide on the bench like a V-step does, then the feet are brought together, then they step down, and finally the step back up. Variations include doing a single jumping jack for the final two counts instead of stepping back up on the bench.

The picture shows a right lead Y-step, and then a left lead Y-step. Notice that this move ends on top of the bench.

This move is done in 8 counts:

• 1. Step up wide on the bench with your lead foot.
• 2. Step up wide on the bench with your other foot.
• 3. Bring your lead foot in towards the center of the bench, while still on top.
• 4. Bring the other foot in, next to the lead foot.
• 5. Step backwards with the lead foot down to the floor.
• 6. Step backwards with the other foot down to the floor. You are now in the same position as the start of the move.
• 7. Step up on the bench with the lead foot.
• 8. Step up on the bench with your other foot.
