This exercise works the ability to create outstanding individual quality in pivoting as well as the ability to approach alignment, distance, cover, etc. inside the fast-paced, back-to-back flank situation that occurs on many drill cards across the country.
Sequence:
8 Steps Forward (8th Step is the Pivot Step)
Left Flank
3 Steps in the Flank (3rd Step is the Pivot Step)
Right Flank
4 Steps and Halt (4th Step is Halting Step, 5th COUNT is the Halt)
If your drill card does NOT have a back-to-back flank sequence, you can easily modify the number of steps between the pivots or even change which pivot occurs first!
