Cadenza battuta (Santucci)

Full name of step in source: 
Rule 76. Cadenza battuta. p76
Translation: 

Beginning with the left foot behind, in passo naturale, raise the left toes, and sliding the left heel at the same time, raise it per fianco to the left-hand side, then let it fall back, two inches away from the right, and put it on the ground with with the toes turned a little per fianco, and in placing the left, thrust the right forwards, about half a palm, and stamp it on the ground in the manner of one who wishes to put on a shoe. It is so called because in doing this cadenza you stamp the feet, one after the other. This can also be done per contrario.
