Some amazing dances produced from Charlie Puth albums and Manjaro is no exception.I will teach this dance first chance I get because I think the dancers will love it.Thanks Robbie for this Killer Manjaro of a dance excuse the pun.

Hi Robbie,
Its often helpful to follow charts such as Copperknob Most Popular.I prefer to note how many votes is given rather than the position of the dance in the charts.However nothing compares to knowing 100% what your dancers enjoy and what they are capable of. We have been
dancing Manjaro for about 3 weeks and for our money this is a class dance and we love it.Thanks again Robbie I hope instructors have the insight and give this dance a try out.
From the Heart Best Wishes Victoria

Another brilliant dance that flows so well to the music. If you've not yet tried it give it a whirl, I'm sure you'll like it. Well done Robbie.
