The primary characteristic of Coltrane changes is tonality movement by major thirds. The progression to "Giant Steps" is:
|| Bmaj7 D7 | Gmaj7 Bb7 | Ebmaj7 | Am7 D7 | | Gmaj7 Bb7 | Ebmaj7 F#7 | Bmaj7 | Fm7 Bb7 | | Ebmaj7 | Am7 D7 | Gmaj7 | C#m7 F#7 | | Bmaj7 | Fm7 Bb7 | Ebmaj7 | C#m7 F#7 ||
The first key center here is B, then G, then Eb, and it continues to cycle through these three keys, which are a major third apart.

Good job at copying and pasting from Wikipedia.
Now try to explain the function and why it works.

Good job at copying and pasting from Wikipedia. Now try to explain the function and why it works. I'm working on it... Not sure why it works... I'm not even sure how I use it.

Those are all major thirds (m6)'s apart. You approach each modulation with the dominant of the following key. D7=V/Gmaj Bb7=V/Ebmaj
