| | The Fox Trot and It's Variations |
 | | The fox trot, like any other gait, is defined by its footfall sequence, support sequence, timing, and the way weight is shifted from foot to foot, both front to back and between transverse pairs of legs (right front to left front). |
 | | Old style fox trot: The support of the older style fox trot, that done at speeds from 6 to 8 mph, is similar to that of the walk. |
 | | In the older style fox trot, this diagonal balance is coupled with low concussion in each step, since at all points in a stride either two or three legs are weight bearing. |
