Sun Levitation

Funk sits on top of the jazz technique in this combination. The groove repeats almost every eight, so the same accent keeps coming back. The groove is low and hip-hop, and the music's hard and soft moments decide how hard it lands.

Part of the combination melts rather than snaps, with more wave than sharp hit. Then comes the floor: slide onto your belly and push your hips toward the ceiling in a toe rise, with an easier option that keeps the toes on the floor. A forced arch pirouette finishes.
