Bend your knees, leaning slightly forward, and extend one leg to the right.
Lift up on the left leg and quickly glide it along the floor until it is next to your right leg. This move should glide in a flowing way, not hopping or skipping.
Hold the position with your legs and knees together, putting most of your weight on your toes and repeat.
Chasse in the opposite direction. Typically, dancers chasse in both directions an equal number of times.
Hold onto your partner and bend your left knee while extending your right leg either forward, backwards or diagonally. The most common direction is diagonally in traditional dances.
Swing your partner in the direction of the extended right leg while you glide your left leg along the floor to meet the right foot.
Take turns extending the right and left legs. Each time the opposite leg meets the extended leg, pause before repeating. In international dances, the woman will sometimes bow after a chasse.
Clear a space in your home or outside about 10 feet long.
Begin to chasse across the space. Meet your feet together at least five times. You may chasse laterally, diagonally, forward or backwards.
Return from the direction you were heading by performing a wide circle turning chasse and continue back to your starting point. Repeat a few times.
