Pulling Taffy, Variation #1, Anchor, by Amy Tyksinski (February 2010)

Forward step, hand comes back in a little curve. Make sure to be aware of the heels before starting. Justin says, “If you go forward and the back heel isn’t anchored, you can hurt yourself.” Some people think by holding the resting pose for a long time, it grounds more. This is not true. Put conscious attention to what you’re doing now. This is how you stay grounded. You make it so.
