A Note About the Turn at the End of the Step:

Don’t forget to spot during the turn.

Find a spot in front of you to focus on before you turn.

Move your head around quickly to find that same spot in front of you as soon as you begin turning.

Do not focus your vision on anything else as you go around,

And turn with the intention of finding that spot in front of you.

👀Let your eyes guide you back to the front.
