Title: Reverse Five Step
Level: Gold (ISTD), (IDTA) Timing: (QQQQS) or (QQS&S) Rotation: Up to ¾ Left. |
Notes
The Reverse Five Step is currently considered a variation of the Five Step that is overturned (up to ¾ to Left) and intended to travel down the floor. However, to be historically accurate one should say the Five Step is a variation on the Reverse Five Step. The first description of a Five Step in Alex Moore's Popular Variations features an alignment that we today would call a Reverse Five Step. |
