This dance was originally choreographed for the St. Rose Hospital's 39th Annual People's Choice Award's "2001 A St. Rose Odyssey" which was held on Saturday evening, October 13th at St. Rose Hospital's Grand White Tent. I was asked to choreograph a section of the awards entertainment, known as "The Heart of St. Rose" named by Pam Russo. Because of the response to the choreography the night of the award show, I decided to make it into a line dance. This dance is dedicated to all the employees of St. Rose Hospital located in Hayward, CA, USA, especially to the "Henry Costa Dancers!"
