Hi. This is Sarah McLellan in New York City. We are at June Parody's Dance Studio and, on behalf of Expert Village, today I'm going to teach you some advanced tap moves. Follow me. Now for our second turn combination, we're going to a very simple flap heel. What you can do to make these interesting is do them syncopated so you can do the straight flap heel. Or you can kind of bridge them together and do them. So let's try that. Let's start out left heels, turn. And there we have our flap heel turns. When you get a bit of music on too, it's really nice to kind of put those flap heels to the music if you've got a bit of jazz or something a little bit funky. And, of course, if you've got something fast, you can do them really fast.
