Explain:

* Turn straddle bench bench straddle - - (home) regular turn straddle home bench 4 counts - then right leg steps up on home left leg steps up on 1st - right leg steps down in trench between home and first left leg steps down on outside of first into a straddle position (8 counts) I teach this by holding them in a straddle position for 3 reps of 4 counts then do the bench bench straddle holding them for 3 sets again until they they the traveling movement.

** Wandering peg leg - I know you've seen this - just like a chug or peg leg - but you're moving from the bench into straddle bench then back again.

*** 1 X 1 - cross the top - right leg bench - left leg floor - right leg straddle - left leg floor same place - cross the top.

****Top top - - right up - left up same bench - hop across to other bench right leg - left leg - down right down left (6 counts)

*****6 Count over and back - got this from here. Step up diagonally right leg - left leg - right leg down off front corner - left leg steps back on top going back where you started - right leg back on top left back to floor on 6 - 7 and 8 is either march, march, or hop, hop or mambo behind.

I don't submit much duo step choreography because it's soooooo difficult to explain. Please email with questions. I'm sure you'll have some. Have fun with this - I love duo stepping.
