Hi,

What does ‘fall in between beats’ mean when talking about dancing?

Thank you.

", the first beat of the bar (downbeat) is usually the strongest accent in the melody and the likeliest place for a chord change, the third is the next strongest: these are "on" beats. The second and fourth are weaker—the "off-beats". "

'in' is somewhat redundant. Some people say 'in between'; some say just 'between'.

You have not provided context, but I'll assume that 'fall' is not to be taken literally so that the dancer ends up on the floor.
