Tips for carrying out the basic steps of tapping.


1- The weight of the body, towards the front.

The weight of your body must always go forward, never backward. This is very important before starting to stomp.

This point is basic to get speed, stability and learn to execute correctly all the steps of the heels.


2-The force comes from behind.

In all the steps of the heels the strength will come from behind the body. The knee does not rise forward but moves back to start each step.


3-The plant.

The step called plant consists of the support of the fingers on the ground. Bring the strength of the leg back and finish the step with the toes resting on the ground. The heel ends above, in the air.


4-The heel.

There are two ways to perform the heel step: heel up and heel down.

The first is to first make a plant and finish the heel on the ground instead of leaving it in the air as in the previous step.

Meanwhile, the heel down is made by placing the heel on the ground keeping the front area of ??the foot in the air.


5-The tip.

To execute the tip, move the foot backwards. It's very simple: drop the tip of your boot on the ground in the back area.


6-The blow.

The blow consists in dropping all the weight of the foot on the ground. Do it dry and hard.
