This video shows a way to start the dance and how to apply basic turns shown in other videos to Chicago Style Stepping. The video has some flaws because the raw footage was suppose to only be used as a developmental tool. The flaws should not hinder you from getting a good idea of how to start the dance and use the basic dance movements shown in my other videos.
That's cool leon,i have to stepp more to get the rythm down because i have prettymuch everything else. It's just the timing with the partner or any body!

Tip-01: only execute turns on the 1, re-sync with your partner on the 3rd beat (7 & 8 with the counting method introduced in my other video). The music determines your speed. Avoid dancing to very fast music - stepping is not suitable for all music. I may 6-count swing (jitterbug) on faster music or sit it out. Also, practice hitting the beat on the 1 (start of count), the 4 & the 7. - repeat through out the song. In the circular move shown in this video count 7,8 for even 2 steps/each beat.
