Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. When you are clogging, what is the term meaning to slide the ball of the foot forward bringing the foot slightly off the ground, then to slide it backwards on the ball also?

Answer: basic

In clogging it is a basic, but in tap (which is totally different from clogging)it is a shuffle.

Answer: fancy double

A fancy double is sometimes shortened to a fancy. The reason it is called a fancy double is because you do two basics, which makes it a double.

Answer: triple

This is called a triple because you do three basics, giving it the name triple.

4. When clogging, what is the name of a step added on to a fancy, triple, or a basic that means to step back on the right foot then to step forward on the left foot?

Answer: rock step

A rock step is the same thing as a ball change in tap and you rock like a rocking chair when doing a ball change. A ball change is called that because you step back on the ball of your foot, just the same as clogging.

5. What clogging term means to thrust your feet forward sliding them on the ground, then to slide them back all in a very quick motion.

Answer: chug

A chug is usually used in a dance when the music stops and there is just a beat.

6. What does it mean to dig your heels into the floor after a basic or fancy? This step must be used immediately after a rock step for it to work correctly when you are clogging.

Answer: buck

A buck is more fun to do than a rock step, even though it has to be done with a rock step. A buck also sounds better than a rock step, too.

Answer: gallop

It is called a gallop because it looks like a horse galloping when it is done correctly. A gallop can be done to the side, to the front, or to the back. It just depends which way you want to go. Although you would have to switch if you went to the left instead of the right.

8. What clogging term means to do a basic on the left foot, then to do a basic on the right foot, hop on the left foot then touch your toe on the floor after the hop?

Answer: Canadian

The Canadian is popular step usually used in an up beat dance.

Answer: pulling weeds

You usually do about four pulling weeds before going to the next step. But you can do as many as you want.

Answer: mountain goat

Keep in mind that when you are doing these steps it doesn't matter which foot you do them on. It was just easier to explain if I designated which foot to do which step on. The only time it would matter which foot you were on is when you are starting a dance or new step or something, then you always start on the left foot.
