V6 is a Silver level dance pattern of the Quickstep dance syllabus. The couple moves diagonally to the center (DC) and then diagonally to the wall (DW), thus sweeping a V-shape on the floor.
The pattern starts with the leader backing DC, e.g., after the first part of the Quarter Turns: the Back Lock (SQQS) is performed, followed by the change of the direction on counts SQQ (leader's steps: left foot back (follower steps outside partner), right foot back with a quarter turn to the left, left foot forward facing DW), followed by a slow step outside partner, e.g., into the Forward Lock (SQQS).
Possible preceding figures:
- "SQQ" of the Quarter Turns
- Natural Spin Turn (SQQSSS) ending DC, the last S being the first S of the V6.
Possible following figures:
- Forward Lock Step
- Forward Pepperpot
- Left scatter chasses
