The polka dance is done by a 3 step count; in other words... one two three, one two three. It starts with the male (leader) taking a step on his right foot, while the woman (partner) steps on her left. The first step is the one then the second step is on the opposite foot for both, then the third count is on the original foot. L for partner and R for male. If you look it up on YouTube you will be able to find a video. My favorite song to practice to is called the Pennsylvania Hills Polka, by polka family. You can find that on youtube as well.
Good luck,
