How to find the beat

Listen for the steady pulse you would clap or nod to — usually the kick drum or bass. In a waltz, tap the strong “1” and the two lighter beats, or tap only the “1” and multiply by three. If the result feels too fast or too slow, the dance may be counted in half time or double time; the matcher below shows both.
