NOTE: This can be a floor split for Lay It Back, the phrased advanced dance by Shane McKeever, Fred Whitehouse, and Guyton Mundy. I tried to keep the feel of their wonderful choreography while making it more accessible for my students. No tags or restarts. See also Lay It Back A Little for an improver version.
