CHOREOGRAPHERS NOTE:

The syncopations and counts probably make this dance a little harder than I had

planned, but as usual the music was telling me what to do and I had no choice!

Nevertheless, I think it is reasonably easy and with the speed of the music, no tags

and only one wall to worry about, what more could you ask for?

The dance moves quite a bit side to side and being a 1 wall dance, you may need to

adjust your steps to make sure that you start at about the same place each time - not

a good idea to start close to a wall!!!!

Once you hear the song you'll (hopefully) understand what I mean when I say it is a

dance to play with that needs some 'attitude'.

The dance was choreographed to teach at a surprise workshop visit for the dancers at

Chinchilla, Queensland. The music is available on my compilation No.7.
