The Anchor Step in West Coast Swing Dancing

On behalf of Expert Village my name is Eric Jacobson and I'm Donna Roesel and we're here in Dance Manhattan Studios in New York City to show you and teach you West Coast Swing. Okay, we're going to do the ladies footwork for the send out. We've just done two triples for our starter step, triple step, triple step. As he opens up the slot and we go down he's going to gently send us from our shoulder blade, we're going to take this hand, right off of his shoulder as we do our footwork, which is, walk, walk, two regular walking steps, we're going to pass the feet, step cross, turn, it's an easy pivot. And now, we're going to do our last triple in place. This is called the anchor step, but it's our second triple in the pattern and we're going to put our left foot slightly behind our right and we're gonna do left, right, left.
