===Marching motions===
{{main|Military step}}
*'''Quick march''': The standard pace is typically 116 beats/minute with a 30in. step.  There is also a ''rifleman's pace'', 140 beats per minute and a '''Highland pace''', 110 beats per minute (typically done with a kilt.) The pace is based on the individual regiments, the pace given by the commander, and the speed of the band's rhythm. The way the march is performed depends on the regiment's nationality.
*'''Slow march''': This is a ceremonial pace, used for funerals and when a unit's colours are marched out in front of the troops. The standard pace is 65 beats per minute.
*'''Half step march''' or '''cut the pace''':
:*This is a U.S. march pace. It is at the same tempo as [[quick time (pace)|quick time]], but instead of 30 inches, the step is 15 inches.
:*There is also a Canadian and Commonwealth version of this, used for when the front file/rank is getting too far ahead of the rest of the flight, squad, or platoon, it means that front file/rank should make their steps smaller, to allow for the rest of the flight, squad, or platoon, to get back into a proper dressing.
*'''Double march''': This is essentially a moderate jog at approximately 180 paces per minute. It creates a travel speed of approximately double that of quick time, designed to be used even when carrying heavy burdens. This is often erroneously used to describe a sprint or an ordinary run. The U.S. command is ''Double time, march''.
*'''Easy march''': This is an unrestricted march at approximately Quick Time. This is designed for field marches and other rough conditions, though is not used in combat areas. The U.S. command is ''Route step, march''. In the Canadian Forces the command ''March at, ease'' is given while the unit is on the march. It can not be given from the halt.
*'''[[Military mark time|Mark time]]''': This is essentially a [[Military mark time|stationary march]] with the knees coming up parallel to the ground or the foot dangling six inches off of the ground. This is designed to maintain the time of large parades when portions need no forward speed. The U.S. equivalent command is ''Mark time, march''.
*'''Step for -ward''' or '''forward''' or '''forward, march''': This causes troops marking time to resume a normal march.
