How to do a Saut de Chat

Saut de Chat(so-di-sha) means "step of the cat". In this dance move, you develope the right(or left) leg and jump from one leg to the other. Kind of like jumping over a puddle. Once you get the main idea, you can start try to get both legs straight and in the air at the same time. If needed, you can always do a chasse or two before starting your saut de chat. The timing for a chasse into saut de chat sequence would go: chasse on your right one, two; step on your left three, jump five down six jump seven down eight. In the middle of a saut de chat, you should be able to take a picture and see both legs straight and at the same height(even if it is low).
