Step Routines

I know this will make no sense to anyone else except for me and possibly some other instructors who might be able to decipher my language, but I just absolutely love my new step routines and had to publicly declare them somewhere.

Both routines total 32 counts and change legs ready to repeat on the other leg for a second set of 32.

Routine #1:

  • Reverse Straddle = 4 counts
  • Switch Curl = 4 counts
  • Chasse (around the step) x 2 = 4 counts
  • Gallop Straddle = 4 counts
  • Stomp Chasse x 2 (stomp on step first time, stomp on floor second time) = 8 counts
  • Rock Back = 4 counts
  • Single Knee = 4 counts
Routine #2:
  • Stomp + Pivot turn = 4 counts
  • Leap (sideways across step) = 4 counts
  • Samba over Step = 6 counts (referred to by some as 2 x Quick Steps)
  • Pivot = 2 counts
  • Gallop Straddle = 4 counts
  • Single Kick = 4 counts
  • Side Tap Forwards = 4 counts
  • Hop over Step = 2 counts
  • Skip (like a Chasse on the Spot) = 2 counts
Instead of the Hop & Skip at the end you could choose instead just to do a normal "Over the Top" for 4 counts.
