Notes
1 In the ISTD syllabus, the timing is written 
as (S&QQQQQQ) to emphasize the first bounce. 
In our example, the first bounce is omitted, hence 
the timing is shown as (QQQQQQQQ). Dropping 
the first bounce technically ignores the written 
footwork. However, it is a common stylistic choice 
used to preserve the smooth flow of the 
choreography.
