    Rock Steps are everywhere! They are the bridge between movements and they give followers SO MUCH information about what our immediate futures are. However, I feel that followers frequently under commit or bounce out of the rock step before getting all of the information they have to offer. In this video, I talk about what I think about when I rock step, and I share a few moves that highlight the differences between a few different kinds of rock steps, including that ever popular swing out!

    Thanks Laura! This is very helpful! As a beginner and a follow, I am often stumped by the randomness... but i see it can be fun!

      Oh, the randomness is everywhere. Just keep at it. The more you do it, the more you notice.

    Us happen the thing at 4.08 and I never find out whats wrong. Thanks!

      Thanks for asking! One the 1, 2 of the swingout, the *right* way is to go backwards both counts, like I do at 3:26. At 4:08, I don't go backwards both counts, I go back on 1, then forward on 2 -- even though Brooks hasn't brought me forward. I haven't relaxed into that backward momentum at all. Hope that helps!

      @@LauraGlaess Oh sorry, I saw it! Was trying to say that thanks to your clips I find the solution! So I as a Lead just have to make sure that I do go step back after the rockstep as well and even more to give her space (like its seen with Brooks Arm - there is space to your back where you should stay connected too) after the rockstep so she dont feel resistance and keep bouncing back one more step. Cant wait to try later on. Thanks for your response and your videos - they are a goldmine!
