Thanks to: Michele B., Martha Ogasawara & the Hemet workshop dancers for their input and to Lex Bayley for introducing me to the song and the artist.
Note: This beautiful song has a tempo that is slower than you might think. There are parts of the choreography like the Cross Rock Returns, for example, that you want to sink into the floor and take your time executing.
