Quick Open Reverse Quickstep
Notes
The Quick Open Reverse is a variation of the Quickstep Reverse Turn, a figure that has since been retired from the ISTD syllabus.
Bridge Step into Quick Open Reverse
In both the Ballroom Technique and Quickstep and Basic Principles, the Quick Open Reverse is written as beginning with the Man's LF Forward (Lady's LF Backward).
However, figures such as the Progressive Chassé, Overturned V6 and any Forward Lock ended DC require a Bridge Step in order to connect to the Quick Open Reverse.
In order to simplify choreographing, we have made a separate Domino for the Bridge Step into Quick Open Reverse.
