[00:00] Hi dancer! Welcome to the class! Today we break down open-close stepping techniques.

[00:04] The most common mistakes to avoid are opening feet too wide or sticking your hip out in an

[00:08] unnatural way. Instead, imagine you have a rubber band across your knees and when you pull open one

[00:12] foot, the other leg would want to go with it. There is no weight shift on the first opening.

[00:17] Feel free to use your toes or heels and even use crossing as a variation for both regular open

[00:21] close and a rotational open close. Now if you're ready, let's go with the music. Ready?

[00:25] 7 and open close step tap open close again open cross step tap open cross rotational open close

[00:36] step tap open close and open close step tap or open cross step tap. That's it! Practice as many times

[00:45] as you need by saving this video or inviting a friend to join you. I'll see you in the next class. Bye bye!
