Choreographers note:- The music and the dance is based on the QQS Rumba.
The dance has been created as a way of introduction to this particular dance form.
There is, within the dance plenty of scope to add the essential Cuban Motion styling as the dancer
progresses and gains in confidence.
Always remember - 'The beat may reach your feet - but the rhythm should electrify your soul'.
Dance starts with the main vocals.
