The Suzie Q (or Suzy Q or Susy Q) is a dance step in the Big Apple, Lindy Hop, Salsa, and other dances. In line dances this step is also known as heel twist (actually refers to step 2) or grind walk. The step is also used in jazz dance, and in Salsa shines.

The step originated from a novelty dance of the 1930s with the same name addressed in the 1936 song Doin' the Suzie-Q by Lil Hardin Armstrong.
