"Now we're going to talk about over the top. And over the top is usually done more for theatrical value than for actual sound. So the first thing you want to do is start with one foot in front. You're going to jump over that foot and land with it in the back. Put it in front, and jump over it. When you jump over it, you can slide it on the floor towards the back. In the front, and then jump over. Some people like to do the over the top with the foot in the air, which requires a lot of agility and a high jump. I prefer to do the over the top with my foot on the floor. Now I'll show you the side view of the over the top."
