V6 (quickstep)


V6 is a silver level dance pattern of the quickstep International Standard Ballroom dance syllabus. The couple moves diagonally to the center and then diagonally to the wall, thus sweeping a V-shape on the floor.

Footwork

The pattern starts with the leader backing DC, e.g., after the first part of the quarter turns: the back lock is performed, followed by the change of the direction on counts SQQ, followed by a slow step outside partner, e.g., into the forward lock. Essentially a back lock followed by an outside change.
