CHOREOGRAPHERS NOTE:

This little waltz has been written simply to introduce the new dancers to a waltz tempo.

It is surprising how many people have never learned to waltz before they started line dancing and I have found that this is often the hardest part for them to master.

This easy little dance done to slow music usually does the trick and they are soon on their way to bigger and better things.

Long live line dancing!!!!.

See you on the floor sometime......  Jan
