Feather or Feather step is a dance figure in the International Style Foxtrot.〔 Depending on a syllabus, it consists of three or four steps (man stepping basically forward), with the third step (right foot) done outside the lady (lady on the right side) with a slight turn in the body position to the right. The feather is also known as the continuity finish in silver American Style Foxtrot. The step was first introduced in 1920 by G. K. Anderson.〔("How ballroom dancing can change your life" )〕 The ISTD syllabus considers the fourth step that aligns the man with the lady into a normal dance position to be part of the Feather Step variation,〔"The Ballroom Technique", 10th Ed., Imperial Society of Teachers of Dance, London〕 while the IDTA syllabus does not. The pattern and especially its distinctive part (steps 2 and 3) gave rise to several variations: 〔 *"Curved Feather", *"Overturned Feather", *"Back Feather", *"Hover Feather". *Endings of more complex variations: * *"Feather Finish" (the first step is taken back), * *"Feather Ending" (the first step is taken in promenade position) ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Feather (step)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
