I found one thing I learned in this trick-step-type-of chasse used a lot by a lot of Modern Ballroom Champions in quickstep. You cannot lower on the scatter chasses, because the scatter action is very, very fast. Lowering the toes to heel is a waste of time, and will get you off time in the scatter. In a competition heat, the judge will see this and it will cost you points. You may not even advance to the final rounds. So I am guessing that usually 4 scatters are done - so actually 2 chasse actions in the scatter - a side-close-side-close, with a very quick "Q a Q a" timing. That is the fastest double time in quickstep. So try to do the scatters all on toes until you finish the scatter, and then, given you do some additional step hop actions after the scatter, only then you can lower your feet to heel.

Hi! I also don’t think that you should put your heel on the floor at any point in scatter chasse, quick or slow. But you definitely have to relax your knee, that will allow you to have fuller action on pick up more body speed.

Need more scatter chasse. Lesson

Funnily we call them Polka-Chassees here - the Scatter ones comparable to the Tipsy are Quicks.

That’s interesting. I think every country has its own name for it.

@@SkylineBallroomTV I would prefer a worldwide dancing terminology, don't like borders and nations... Polka might be the specific name for "slow scatter chassees"

[@SkylineBallroomTV]

All I know that I asked our teachers and they all agreed on “scatter chasse”, but in fact all our teachers are British so again that’s the terminology they use in UK. But I heard also other International teachers saying “polka”, “hops”, even “jumps”.
