The rhythm patterns here make use of the Rolling Count and are Syncopated. For definitions of terms used here go to DanceDictionary.com

I am sure there are also many other acceptable paths to this common goal other than what I have defined here. I would like to see lesson structures created by others that make use of the Universal Unit System (TM).
