Cruisin’ by Neil Hale is one of my favorite classic line dances.
It can be danced individually or with a partner.
I choreographed Cruisin’ Changed My Life, to include the 32 count Cruisin’ during the chorus, because it felt so good dancing it. But, by including Cruisin’ it made traditional choreography challenging. Therefore, this line dance is choreographed having 3 parts; A-B-C and one Tag.
