Sonia's Simply Super Circuit 1
This is a
Step pattern from
www.turnstep.com.
(pattern 15451)
This is a circuit class done as a group. You will need a step and a set of dumbbells. Step combos are 32 counts, tapless, and self-reversing. I like to use step music at 128-130 throughout. Work the combos approximately 3 to 4 minutes. The strength moves will take approximately 1 1/2 minutes, except for #5 - it is longer.

- Right, 1 Glute squeeze, right lead at left corner (4)
- Left, 1 Split lunge, exit front left and right (8)
- Left, 1 Glute Squeeze, left lead at NW corner (corner to your right when you face back) (4)
