JIVE CHASSÉS The Chassé used in Jive consists of a group of three steps, which may be thought of as Little, Littler, and Big matching the timing /beat value. The first

step being little, the second step being half closed to the stationary foot requiring a

quick hop or skip action, the third step with the greatest time/beat value being the

big step. All steps are small because of Tempo.

The Chassé may be taken with or without turn forward, backward, sideward or in

place. The actual amount of turn in the charts is sometimes shown over three steps.

The Chassé may use a locking action on the second step for man and lady when

moving forward or backward.

Chassé Techniques

HIP, HIP, HIP ACTION - uses hip action on each of the three steps

DOWN AND DOWN ACTION - maintains a dropped hip over the three steps

UP AND UP ACTION - uses a strong foot rise of the supporting foot raising

the body to create a bounce on each of the three steps.

FOOTWORK The Basic footwork for a Rock and Recover step is ball-flat. As a step is taken on the BALL of FOOT the (heel) FLAT lowers to the floor, at the same time the

heel of the unweighted foot is released from the floor. At slower tempo the Jive

Chassé is usually danced as ball-flat on each step, or ball-flat, ball, ball-flat. At a

faster tempo the footwork is ball, ball, ball-flat.


JV - 3

NOTE:

The inside edge of the foot touches the floor first and then rolls over to the ball of foot

on all steps. The feet will generally have toes turned out.

KNEE ACTION The knees are flexed in ALL of the steps. At no time should the knees

be locked. The knee is veering in and downward. This knee action can only be

accomplished by turning the toes out.

LEG ACTION Should be through the raising of the thigh, bending of the knee and flexing the ankle with the toe barely leaving the floor and then replacing it toe, ball,

flat.

ARM ACTION Generally, the arms move freely. When passing partners the arms

swing in or are drawn in close to the body. When moving away from partner to

Open Position the arms swing out or are extended away from body. The body moves

away, towards and around the hand when in Closed, Open or Promenade

(Semi-Closed) Position. Other arm movements may be used for individual

expression. It is best to keep the arm movement simple.

DANCE TECHNIQUES The following are some techniques used in dancing the jive.

1: Raise the thigh of the moving foot on "a" as a preparation action before

transferring weight to the foot on the beat count.

Example: "a" raise thigh, 1 place foot

2: Use a little bounce in the body with hip movement on each step

3: use a strong foot rise of the supporting foot raising the body on the "a"

count creating a bouncing action in the body before transferring weight

to the ball of the moving foot on the beat count.

BODY POSTURE Forward poise with weight carried over the balls of the feet.

CLOSED POSITION HOLD Stand facing partner about 6" apart with Lady's Right foot pointing between Man's feet and Lady's Left foot outside of Man's Right foot. The

Man should place his Right Hand on Lady's Back on her left shoulder blade, holding

her Right Hand in his Left Hand with the arms close to the body and the hands about

Lady's eye level. The Lady will rest her Left arm lightly on the Man's Right arm,

following the curve of his arm to the shoulder. Man's Left and Lady's Right hands are

joined palm to palm. The Man's fingers close on the back of Lady's hand, the Lady's

fingers close on the back of Man's hand.

ALTERNATE HAND HOLD The Lady's Right Hand will be Palm down with Man's Left


JV - 4

Hand underneath and palm up. His thumb will be on the back of Lady's Fingers just

below the knuckles. The Hands are held about waist level.

OPEN POSITION HOLD Use the same hand position with either hand or handshake

hold as in the Alternate Hand Hold.

PROMENADE POSITION (Semi-Closed) Note In some figures the man is in

Promenade Position while the lady is not as shown in the charts.

[Step 6.] Swivel on right foot, turning to the left and step forward on the left foot.

GENERAL NOTES You may take all steps as slow steps or quick steps. The footwork when dancing all quick steps, may be heel, flat.


MAN ARM - The left arm should remain bent at the elbow and close to body without movement to right or left as Lady offers resistance to lead. FOOT - As the foot steps back, the tip of the shoe is touching and pointing to the floor (length of step completed as knees come together). Take weight with a delayed heel lowering. HIPS - You use Merengue hip action, on each step.

LADY POSTURE - In the "sit" position with the hips slightly back. HIPS - You use the maximum hip rotation (CBM), i.e., left hip forward, right foot forward. FOOT ACTION - A swiveling inward action occurs, on the weighted foot, as each step starts. The unweighted moving foot circles inward, with a slight pressure on inside edge of the big toe. It then circles, out and away, from the weighted foot ending with the outside edge of the foot (small toe) in touch with the floor. Both feet will be in alignment and pointing in the same direction throughout. LEGS - The supporting leg will have a relaxed knee, lowering the body slightly. Flex the leg of


JV – Fig 15 - 35

the moving foot slightly when circling the foot towards the weighted foot. After drawing the moving foot to the side of weighted foot and starts to pass, straighten the leg sharply and point the foot outward, taking weight on the moving foot. Compress the knee and repeat the action. ARM - The right arm will remain bent at the elbow and close to the body on each step, with little movement sideways. HEAD - You look at the man on all steps.

GENERAL NOTES

For the purpose of figure description, the amount of turn on each Chassé is approximate and will vary when danced. MAN - On steps 3 to 17 a continuous left turn is danced almost in place on each Chassé. LADY- On steps 3 to 17, each inward & away Chassé will travel circling around man. The action on the turns of the Chassé for Lady are similar to an agitator action in a washing machine.

GENERAL NOTES Variations in timing – Convention has established the timing for this figure as 1a2a3a4a. However, the dancer and choreographer will often prefer to use the timing a1a2a3a4 since normally the heel and toe are on the floor for a shorter period of time than the whole foot.

Optional Handhold and Arm action Man may put his right hand on lady’s waist. The joined man’s left and lady’s right hands are held low at waist level or lower. As man steps forward on left heel, the left arm goes forward (lady’s right arm goes back). As man steps back on the left toe, the left arm goes back (lady’s right arm goes forward). This figure may be danced facing in any direction.

GENERAL NOTES

The man chasses away from his hand, extending his arm, so that the lady can wrap. The lady's left side is tight to the man's right side. HAND ACTION DURING THE WRAP MAN The man forms an almost closed letter "C" with his four fingers and thumb of his right

hand. This permits the lady to put her fingers in the opening, maintaining hand contact, as she revolves her hand & wraps tightly into the man's arm.

LADY In the wrapped position, the palm of the lady's right hand is resting on the back of the

man's hand with her thumb touching her forefinger, the fingers inside the man's fingers. Bend the hand upwards and the wrist down, which brings the elbow slightly forward.

ALTERNATE HAND HOLD

Have the man's right & the lady's left hands joined, as the lady wraps into the man's arm, maintaining a right to left hand holds throughout.

OPTIONAL

Ladies spin 1 full turn to the right on step 10. Use the foot, leg and hip action as described in the Introduction Section of the Jive. * LATIN CROSS is a foot position achieved when one foot is crossed in front or behind the other. The crossing foot, whether front or back will have the toe turned out. The heel of the front foot will be in front of the toe of the back foot.

Draw the left foot past the right, knees together, then step forward on the left (a small step). [Step 6.] Draw the right foot past the left, knees together, then step forward on the right (a small step).

LADY Start in open facing position, facing RLOD. [Step 1.] Lower on the left foot and in the same track step back on the right foot. [Step 2.] Lower on the right foot and in the same track step back on the left foot. [Step 3.] Lower on the left foot and in the same track step back on the right foot. [Step 4.] Lower on the right foot and in the same track step back on the left foot. [Step 5.] Lower on the left foot and in the same track step back on the right foot. [Step 6.] Lower on right foot and in the same track step back on the left foot.

GENERAL NOTES

You may take all steps as slow steps or quick steps. The footwork when dancing all quick steps, may be heel, flat.


MAN ARM - The left arm should remain bent at the elbow and close to body without movement to right or left as Lady offers resistance to lead.

FOOT - As the foot steps forward, the heel of the shoe is touching and pointing to the floor (length of step completed as knees come together). Take weight with a delayed lowering to flat.

HIPS - You use Merengue hip action, on each step.

HEAD – Man may use pecking action with head when strutting forward with chest puffed out. Head movement should coincide with timing of Rooster Walks.

LADY POSTURE - In the "sit" position with the hips slightly back.

HIPS - You may use some hip rotation, i.e., left hip back, right foot back.

FOOT ACTION - As each step starts, the unweighted moving foot moves back past weighted foot in the same track, with a slight pressure on the toe of the shoe, and a delayed heel lowering. Both feet will be in alignment and pointing in the same direction throughout.

LEGS - The supporting leg will have a relaxed knee, lowering the body slightly. Flex the leg of the moving foot slightly, at the knee, when drawing back towards the weighted foot. After drawing the moving foot to the side of the weighted foot and it then starts to pass, straighten the leg sharply and point the toe backward. Taking weight on the moving foot, compress the knee and repeat the action.

ARM - The Lady's right arm will remain bent at the elbow and close to the body on each step, with little movement sideways.

HEAD - You look at the man on all steps.
