* Cowboy Waltzes, usually have an emphasis on the 1 count, of a ¾ Rhythm. That is; a down(1/2 dip, Plie) movement can be made. One can hear it in the music.
So, usually(but not always) the 2nd count of a Cowboy ¾ Rhythm, is best executed with a rise, following count 1 (half dip), with the ball of the foot placed on the floor and heel raised( usually called a balance step). The Down, Up, Up movement allows the dancer to gain the overall "attitude" to the Waltz.
* Option 1. A ¾ turn to the right may be incorporated, commencing at count 2 and finishing at count 3 of the second bracket(It's quick). here, we can see the benefit of rising on the balls of the feet, for count 2 and 3 of the second bracket.
* Option 2. A triple step turn to the right may be incorporated on count 4,5,6, in bracket 4 (replacing the twinkle step).
