What is a "shuffle"?
In dance, a shuffle is a quick, rhythmic movement where the dancer makes a series of short, sliding or tapping steps. It typically involves dragging or brushing the foot along the floor, often alternating between feet. Shuffles are commonly used in styles like tap dancing, where the sound of the footwork is an essential part of the performance. The movement adds a lively and dynamic element to the dance, contributing to the overall rhythm and energy of the routine. Shuffles require precision and timing to achieve a smooth, rhythmic effect.
