Basic Quickstep Demo (Music) by Mirko & Alessia

[ABeckman09]

Way to work a small floor

[phplinkdirectory]

The "top comment" fails to mention the beginning correctly which is:

Natural Turn - Hesitation - Rumba Cross - 1-3 Natural & Natural Pivot Turn - Running Right.

After that, the comment seems accurate.

[ucwhitten]

@phplinkdirectory It actually looks like a Prep - Natural Turn - Rumba Cross - Rumba Cross - Running Right Turn

The "Hesitation" you're talking about is a heel pull.

[exabako]

What's the name of this music?

[choims110192]

This is SOOOOO not "basic" quickstep demo. It will take quite a few years and months to learn this "basic" step.

[joaofernandes612]

@choims110192 Look, "basic" in the following: all these steps are from a "normal" level, that's it. You don't see them running in the center and sliding to the end of a corner... for example...

Everything looks difficult when you can't dance. Take some private lessons with a good teacher.

[shanzfromtheblock]

you guys are really good

[cl604driver]

Any idea the name of the song? Be a great practice song since I am just starting QS basic. Thanks.

[NTTT1989]

wow it is really difficult.

[saraa49]

Nice for waltz steps, it has nothing to do with quick steps. Thanks

[AldhisslaVargTimmene]

@saraa49 Waltz steps??? Waltz is times of 3, this is defenitely times of 4 and I clearly see quickstep moves!

[benswimmin]

@AldhisslaVargTimmene that's because this isn't a waltz, it is a quickstep. Its not as up in the air as a lot of open choreography is, but that's because they're doing all syllabus figures. Also I just have to say their tipsy is amazing!

[flo024]

Sportsman, you are right: It´s a natural pivot turn into rumba cross (danced twice)!

[Herbainutilis]

@JDottBeast There's a cross swivel between the double reverse and the fishtail.

[JDottBeast]

the first 12 seconds even i dont have a clue what the figure is so please let me know the rest of the routine i will post now

[sportsman525]

i guess it's natural pivot turn into rumba cross (danced twice).

thx

[DanzwintZ]

pls help.. post the syllabus/figures names... tahnkss

[xBroadwayDivax]

I wish I could dance like this. But I think I'm to fat for that ._.

[paulishot]

This is amazing! I'm so happy the world's best stanard dancers show how the basic steps are done with perfect technique, and it also shows how many different ways moves ad be combined for outstanding choreography. I will definitely be using these in my routines.

Can anyone please list the order of the figures? Some I don't recognize either because the entrances and exits i'm unfamilar with, i don't know the moves, or the technique is so superior the move looks completely different!

[przemekmistrz93]

whats this song??

[GoMessengerFish]

yes i want to know too... what IS the name of this song?

[RenaSohma]

THATS AMAZING!!!!!!! we went over quickstep for 2 months and not even our captains can do that!!!! and they've been learning it for like a half a year

[knsdesigner]

Well, these guys probably practiced dancing for 15 years... :)

[Iakoforna93]

they practice dance mooore than 15 years..but i'm not shure

[JoanaLopesSilva]

what the title of this song?

[Mloes1989]

yes but the first count you have to go on your hiel. the second count if you're going forward first hiel that just make a normale step to go to your toe( something like that)

[navarredance]

I'm more concerned that Alessia lifts her toes up way too much on heel turns - compare them with Karen Hilton or Hazel Newberry and you'll see what I mean.

[navarredance]

.....if only I could dance at a fraction of that level.....

[Mloes1989]

wonderfull but the woman steps wrong if she's going forward she had to step on her hiel not on the front of her foot.

[navarredance]

That depends if she's already Up - if she is, the following step is a toe lower and I think you'll find that's the case here. Check the technique book on the rise and fall and how it affects the footwork if you're not sure.

[1Fallaway]

Simply wonderful!!!
