There have been a number of references to balances always involving a stomp.
I was under the impression that there were lots of ways to balance, many of which don't involve a stomp. I usually teach "balance to the right-2-3, to the left-2-3". I did notice more stomping than I was familiar with at The Flurry this year, just step right, stamp left, step left, stamp right. Is stomping now the standard across America? What do YOU teach as the footwork in a balance? See http://www.izaak.unh.edu/dlp/NorthernJunket/pages/NJv05/NJv05-01/NJv.05. 01.p13.htm for 50 variations of the balance. Thanks.
