Hmmm... I thought she was, but I can't find her subscription.

Based from what I know of Donna (she's a great dancer and lots of fun) and what I see and hear in the video: she's reflecting what she hears in the music in her step. A little stutter step on the phrase, especially when the music is "telling" you to do it can be a lot of fun. It places a physical emphasis on the first beat of the phrase that reflects the musical emphasis. It's pretty much a style thing, rather than a technique is my guess.

It's really fun as a caller to watch how people dance differently based on the style of the music.

...starting just after the music gets fast, there is an inactive women coming
up the line with reddish hair and and a knee brace who does a sort of stutter
step before she does some of the moves... If anyone knows why she does so or
even who she is so I can ask her the advantage of that it would be most
appreciated  :)
best wishes ...
