Advanced & Tapless from Jackie

Part I

• Glute lift corner to corner, option: turn out after 1st one
• Up, up 2 lunges facing rear
• Mambo cha cha corner to corner
• Hop turn no tap, left basic

Explanations:

Turn out after glute: 1 step up right to left corner; 2 glute lift; 3 step down left, rotating body to face rear; 4 step down right, rotating more to come around to right side of step; 5-8 regular glute lift on right corner

Lunges facing rear: 1-2 step up right left like your going over with no taps; 3-6 lunge right & left, facing rear; 7-8 down right left

Mambo cha cha: 1 right step on bench; 2 left step on floor; 3-&-4 cha cha cha on floor; repeat with other foot

Part II

• Turn and straddle
• Turn regular, but end with a kick rather than a tap
• Mambo; option: do your mambo on the small right/east end of step
• Over without tapping; option: over bench long ways, if you mambo-ed on the small end
• 3 Quick lunges and exit to your right, (you started with a left lead)
• March around end; 4 counts, right lead
• 1 Chug (tapless turn)

Explanations:

3 Quick lunges: 1-2 up left and right; 3 left foot lunges to right; 4 left foot "jumps" back up and right foot lunges to right; 5 right foot jumps up and left foot lunges; 6 left foot jumps up and right foot hangs in air on right side; 7-8 down right and left facing your step. A less intense/easier on the knees option is to: 1-2 go up left right; 3-5 lunge left, tap left on top, lunge left; 6 left foot plants on top; 7-8 down right and left.

Part III

• Right lead "l" step off left/west, no tap at end, either step down down facing step or away from step
• Left lead "l" step to front/north side of step
• Right lead 2 charleston kicks; option: kick and ski
• 2 V-steps; option: reverse both V
• Over cha cha
• Shuffle around end to back/south

Explanations:

Reverse "V" -I'll explain this starting on the front/north side of the step where you'll be in the pattern: 1 right foot up on your left/the east corner, rotating to face east; 2 left up on other corner, rotating to face north/front; 3-4 down right & left facing front/north. Repeat to return to front/north side of step.

Over cha cha: 1-2 up right & left like regular over; 3-&-4 down right/left/right in a syncopated/cha cha/heel ball change tempo.

Shuffle: 1-&-2 "skip" with back to your step, traveling east, which is to your left; 3-&-4 "skip" facing the east end of your step, traveling north, so you are ready to L-step off the west end, facing south to repeat.

Part IV

• Abduct straddle 2 times, exiting to norht/front, no taps at end. Sometimes I teach this as corner to corner so the class stays facing the front, especially if the students are real visual learners.
• Repeater knee right lead, facing south; option: knee tap lunge
• Revolving door
• 6 Count turn; 2 heel taps on top or 2 jumps on floor

Explanations:

Knee tap lunge: 1 right foot up; 2 left knee up; 3 left lunge to left/north; 4 left foot plants on step; 5 right lunge to right/south; 6 right foot plants on step; 7-8 down left & right

Revolving door: over twice with same lead, and no taps. Beginner option is over regular twice with taps, everyone returns to the same place.

6 Count turn: 1-3 left/right/left like a regular turn; 4 right back up on top to start another turn; 5 left up like regular turn; 6 right down like turn; 7-8 two left heel taps on step, or 2 jumps on floor. Beginner option is 2 regular turns, everyone returns to same place.
