Title: Chassé Reverse Turn
Level: Pre-Bronze (ISTD), (IDTA)
Timing: (SQQ)
Rotation: Up to 3/8 to Left
Notes
In Guy Howard's The Quickstep and Basic Principles as well as the
IDTA syllabus, the Chassé Reverse Turn is referred to simply as the "Reverse Turn." It should be noted that unlike 1-6 Natural Turn, what
formerly constituted steps 4-6 of this reverse turning action is now
listed separately as the Heel Pivot (Quarter Turn to Left).
