Toe Tap Dance Move
BackTOE [flat] – 1 – lift the toe but keep the heel on the floor, then drop the toe flat on the floor. There is another toe (toe-tip) that I call a toe where you lift your foot all the way off the floor and hit the very front edge of the toe on the floor – see toe-tip below
Tip: Make your toe sounds strong so you build shin strength which will give you strong clear sounds when you go faster.

Common Problems & Fixes
Toes - Problems: Students roll through the foot to put the toe down and/or not enough metal touches the floor yielding a sound that's too soft.
Solutions: Add more downward force to the foot before the toe drops and then drop the toe sharply. Also, you can gently (not too much) press the toes against the bottom of the shoe to get more metal to contact the floor and thus increase the volume.
