I don't know which org you're in, but here is my advice:

1) Contact Nate Hayward. He is a Pi Delta Psi at George Washington University, and he is quite the scholar-in-training about Asian and other cultural Greek lettered organizations. He is also on Greekchat, but he hasn't posted in a while.

2) Read a book called Soulsteppin' by Dr. Elizabeth Fine. It should be available on amazon.com.

3) Share your concerns with a BGLO member on your campus that you trust. Much of what you're worried about can be fixed with a good mentor on your own campus.

As a (retired?) stepper myself, what you really want to do is look to your own organizations symbols and traditions and incorporate them into your performances.

Also know that even among NPHC fraternities, the fraternties have their own styles. Some step, some hop, some cane. Some Latino fraternities only salute.

Good luck with everything!
