"Hi, I'm Emily Larew, continuing now with our intermediate tap combination. We're at counts one through four. We just snapped and said we are out of here, our left foot is free to go, so what we're going to do is a three tap riffle on our left foot. It goes brush, heel, step. Try it again, it's a little riffle. Brush, heel, step. We're going to be traveling again to the left, so we have and a one, your right foot is going to come follow up behind it step, heel, heel, step. Try it again. And a oney and a two. Whoo, all these little innies and a ones in us and twos in us. Ready, and a oney, and a two. Your right foot is just going to repeat it on the other side. Riffle, brush, heel, step, step, heel, heel, step. Ok, so make sure again you use your knees so you get those full sounds in there. So we did seven and eight, and a oney, and a two, and a three, and a four. And as you can tell, I'm using my body. Just because you guys, that we're doing you know, all this stuff with our feet, it doesn't mean that you forget about your upper body. You got to have fun with it, ok. So get into a floor and roll with it. Seven and eight, and a oney, and a two, and a three, and a four. And I'm just using my arm as I go. Alright, so nothing major, just let it swing and be natural with you. And that was counts one through four."
