The 'Flap Heel' Tap Dance Move

Video Transcript

Hi, I'm Emily Larew, continuing on with our advanced tap combination. This next little tap step is actually pretty easy, but when you put this all together with your song, if you are going to use the Christina Aguilera "Candyman" song, it is wicked fast, and that's what makes this an advanced tap combination. So here we go. What I want you to do is we're going to take our right foot. We just did our flap, pickup skip, three, four. You're going to take a shuffle ball change, shuffle, ball, change. From there, I want you to press your right shoulder forward. You have flap, heel, heel. Your arm, your left arm, comes up. Flap, right, left. And you're going to travel up and down his arm. That's the lyrics of that, up and down his arm. So here we go, six, seven, and a five, six, seven, and eight. So make sure you sit in that, and I don't, just because it's going to be quick doesn't mean that you can throw away your tap sounds. So, five, six, seven, and eight. Alright? And don't forget to be fluid. Because again, once again, when we're doing fast tap steps and we're focusing on our feet all the time, we forget about our upper body and how that needs to flow with it. Don't let it be super jerky just because you're doing a fast step. Alright? So make sure you have a good balance there. Be strong with your both parts of your body. Great work.
