发帖数: 84 | 1 There is one issue in Foxtrot that I find so vexing that I am afraid that my
Foxtrot will take on a split personality and become schizophreniac. There
appear, at least to me, to be two kinds of counts in Foxtrot. One is the
classical version of QQS as in all the technique books, the other is SQQ which
I often see when I watch the competition videos. The first seems to be
favored by the British, the latter the Italians, and gaining increasing
popularity. I myself is partial to the Italian timing, | l*****r
发帖数: 91 | 2 I would say the count really depends on the steps. Can be QQS, SQQ, or QQQQ,
or SS. | m*******r
发帖数: 168 | 3 I don't know much about the slow foxtrot history. But it is said that an
earlier version of foxtrot was developed into a slow verion, the slow foxtrot,
and a fast version, the quickstep.
The following is Stephen Cullip's story about the history of the feather step.
It might have something to do with your question. Originally, the feather
step was danced using QQS timing starting with the left foot. It was evolved
into SQQ timing starting with right foot later on. But it is not natural to

发帖数: 419 | 4 i promise you i'll do it sometime this long weekend. i also have lots of
teaching video including theirs which i never watch /blush. i'll tell you next
week on what count they land each step of the feather.
now relax and have a great holiday weekend! this is not an engineering project
!!!!! like i said each beat of music can be further divided and the boundary
can become blurred. a variety of music interpretations also add to the
artistry of dancesport. | d********e
发帖数: 419 | 5 what the 2nd version does is use a prep step on the first beat which cuts the
first step of a feather into Q. it still arrives on 2, but has become a Q. it
then takes the third step of a feather, the drifting step, as a S. is it wrong
, no. neither is wrong. each one has his preference. and let me warn you, each
judge has his preference too:p if you take first step of feather like that,
some judges are gonna say your prep is too late. | n********r
发帖数: 84 | 6 Both dancedance and moonraker were saying that both SQQ and QQS versions are
legitimate, but you can't do it at the beginning, if I get the gist right.
This to me then makes for inconsistency in style. That just leaves the
possibility, as I had suggested in jest before, of sneakily openning the dance
with SQQ then switch to QQS right after if you feel like doing the Italian
QQS version.
What I see is when dancers are dancing to QQS timing, they invariably lands
left on count 1 at the very start.

发帖数: 84 | 9 The diffference between SQQ and QQS versions are at their most apparent if you
steck the two versions in LR notation and the numeric counts on top of each
other. The R shifts between count 4 and 5, and symmetrically L between count 8
and 1. There is no additional step, as orion claims, if you count only the
periodic 8 beats. The difference is, just as dancedance and FrenchKiss have
pointed out, when you land the third step (right in feather finish and left in
three step).

opposite situation that dancedance mentioned about syllabus competition.
so, just tell me how you would dance feather and three step.

arrive on 2. you don't pause.
ok, that's more technicial discussion that i've participated in the last 4
years combined. you can check history to verify:) enough to make my heads spin

because if you don't, you're gonna be yelled at every time for doing it wrong.
in the end, dancing is an art, not a science. some people count in Q and S,
some people count in 1234, yet some count in &1&2 etc. the ambiguity provides
artists like luca and massimo with room for their artistic expression. we have
