These movement teasers are meant for you to get an idea of what’s coming in your classes, or to remind you what a particular step looks like. The dancers demonstrate the basic step, and then add some variations which you'll learn in a higher level class. Cassandra's introduction to these videos describes why we use these names for the movements. To really learn how to do these steps, come to class and we’ll teach you!!!
