Before we go on, this is an Advanced dance mainly because of the speed, I'm sure you

could try to another countrier song if you don't like the Big Brovas music- which

personally I think is fab!!- If a different song is used you don't have to stress

about the bridge!!

OK now for the bridge- well at least I think it's a bridge??? There are two times

(walls 7 and 10) in the Big Brovas song where the beats appear to change to 4:4

(waltz music is 3:3), so during these two times- we will just count the beats as 1&2,

3&4- I guess you could just dance through in waltz time but I feels awkward. Here is

the dance in 4:4 beat;

CROSS, SIDE, REPLACE, CROSS, 1/4 TURN, BACK

1&2 Step L over R, step R to R, step weight onto L

3&4 Step R over L, step L back making 1/4 turn to R, step R back

BACK, DRAG, HOOK, FULL TURN FWD (or step fwd R,L,R)

5&6 Step L back, drag R toward L, hook R foot under L knee (prepare for turn)

7&8 Step R fwd, step L back turning 1/2 to R, step R fwd turning 1/2 to R

FWD COASTER, BACK, DRAG

1&2 Step L fwd, step R together, step L back

3&4 Step R back, drag L toe back for 2 beats

BACK, DRAG, BACK COASTER

5&6 Step L back, drag R toe back for 2 beats

7&8 Step R back, step L together, step R fwd

SIDE, REPLACE, CROSS, SIDE, DRAG

1&2 Step L to L, rock weight onto R, step L over R

3&4 Step R to R (big step), drag L next to R for 2 beats

1 1/4 TURN (travelling L), STEP, DRAG

So basically your still doing the same dance, but it will feel different- am I making

sense?? When you listen to the music it will- I promise!!!

Dance finishes at the front with a stomp!!!
