So, now you're going to do your basic two step, step to the back. So we're gonna take our left foot and we're gonna step, then you're gonna bring you're right foot behind you and you take you're right foot, bring it equal to the left foot and you're gonna take you're left foot and bring it behind you're right foot...step to the back. Good!. You're gonna take your left foot, bring it center even with your right foot again and then step again..Boom! You want to bend your knees a little bit, not so much where you lunge, but you want to bend your knees just a little bit so you get that little bounce.
