Thank you so much for this video. I have been looking for a good breakdown of this step and you are the only one so far that broke it down so it made sense to me. Thank you!
I love watching your videos. You explain it so well. I’m working on these and I’m definitely having a hard time with this one...Any extra tips? 😅 Not sure if it’s just me or my tap shoes lol 😂
A triplet is 3 even sounds per 1 beat of music. You can most certainly make 4 sounds in a triplet rhythm if the 4th is at the start of the next beat of music. I literally teach music theory all over the world at tap fests etc. Hope that helps! 😁
@@shelbykaufman That's one triplet and a third of a triplet. I thought I might have a suggestion on how to edit the contradictory language, but I don't.
Well sure but I still just say we are in a triplet rhythm. Like if I were to teach something with 5 sounds or 30 sounds, if it's 3 even sounds per beat, I'd still just say we are in triplets here and not specify that its 1 and 2/3rds triplet etc. I guess I could but might be a little much while I am in the middle of teaching a tap dance. But I get your point.
@@strackattack P.S. I already drive my students mathematically crazier than almost any tap dancer I know by saying stuff like, that's a 2/3 of a count pause here, or that's sound is 1/6 of the way into this beat etc... they would murder me if I started saying how many actual triplets plus how many thirds lol!
I love how you gave us lots of ways to approach the step. Sign of a curious teacher. Thank you.
excellent teaching skills. I love how you show it in slow motion and get the right rhythm going.
Thank you so much Miss Shelby! This really helped improved my double pullbacks!
Thank you so much, wonderful explanation! My lovely wife is loving your tap-torials!

+drumm1457 So glad this video helped you!
I love the sound of those taps! Helpful vid!
Fabulous, slow mo really helps Shelby, many thanks😎

My tips would depend on what you personally are doing. Can you explain? Are you making a scrape sound? Only one sound instead of 2? etc.
@@shelbykaufman yes only 1 of my feet can make the spank back but not the other 😂
Am I the only person who thinks a double pullback is much easier than a regular one?
JoAnna C I agree with you! It took me FOREVER to figure out the first one but the double was always a breeze for me. My teacher was baffled.
For me I can do pullbacks so easy across the floor really fast for for double pull backs im slower
Crying. I was taught it was (R) brush toe (L) brush toe.
A triplet is three sounds, not four.

@@shelbykaufman Four triplet notes seems like it could be the simplest explanation for your tap dance students who can also read sheet music.
