How Do You Do Toe Heel Shuffles In Tap Dancing?

The name of this tap dance combination is a little misleading. You will notice that you don't do a typical shuffle despite the name. A shuffle is a forward and backward brush on the ball of your foot.

In the toe heel shuffle combination, the dancer does brush to the front and to the back, which is a shuffle. However, she adds a heel scuff and a heel drop, on the other foot, in between the brushes, which disqualifies the move from being your standard shuffle. The dancer does a riff (brush scuff.) Brush your right foot to the front.

The brush involves only the ball of your foot. The brush starts from the back and moves forward. The dancer bends her working leg to accommodate the brush.

Scuff your right heel as you are executing the front brush. A scuff consists of swiping the heel of your shoe against the floor. It is not a heel dig, where the dancer emphatically digs her heel into the floor; it's a swiping/forward moving step.

The front brush and scuff are done on the count of "and 8," ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
