Hi, I'm Emily Larew, and we are just continuing with our tap education. So, if you've watched the first, very first segment we've done with the Maxie Fords, we're going to start adding them a little bit quicker, and we're going to kind of change them over a little bit, so that you can reverse it from right to left, without stopping in between. So, our Al Gilbert Maxie Ford was shuffle, jump toe, step. Okay. And then we'd be on the right foot again. Shuffle, jump toe, step. So basically a changeover is you're just going to add another step. So let's try that. We have five, six, seven, and shuffle, jump toe, step, step. So you're just getting quicker and transferring your weight a little bit more. Again, try right and then we're going to go right into left because we're already there and ready to go. Five, six, seven, and, shuffle, jump toe, step, step. Shuffle, jump toe, step, step. Shuffle, that's where you get tricky so you got to make sure that you pay attention, okay? Ready, five, six, seven, and shuffle, jump toe, step, step, shuffle, jump toe, step, step, shuffle, jump toe, step, step, shuffle, jump toe, step, step. So just remember in your Al Gilbert Maxie Ford you end with a step, all you're adding is another step into that to go over to the left. Good job.
