NOTES:
I have written the dance out as a 64-count dance due to tempo of the music (190bpm) but it could just as easily be taught as 32-counts. E.g., the first sections would become 1&2, 3&4, 5&6, 7&8 etc.
The dance was choreographed for our 'Winter Wonderland' weekend in November 2021 which was the first event in two years that we were able to host due to the Covid pandemic, and I felt that the song lyrics would sum up how the dancers would feel that weekend - "No more loneliness, only happiness, love's gonna live here again"
