Tango Drill Named after the dance, when you perform this drill correctly you'll see why. Or should it be the Foxtrot? • Start with both feet outside of the first square and to the left • Cross your left leg over your right and into the centre of the first square. Your
right leg should immediately follow to the right of the first square, followed by your left leg
• It's a 1-2-3 motion like you're dancing • From here your right foot comes across your left and into the centre of the
second square as the pattern is repeated in the opposite direction • Repeat for the full length of the ladder
