DO IT ON THE FLOOR
Forward Walk - Travelling Step
The forward walk is the only step you really need in Foxtrot to get yourself around the room. The man should face the direction he wants to travel and simply repeat the step over and over.
Obviously if you are going to go around a room you need to curve the step slightly over time. Keep you curve moderate and you shouldn't have any problems.
Suggested Combination: Just point and go!
