[17-24] ½ TURNING SHUFFLES - TRAVELLING TOWARDS 12.00 (2x); ROCKING CHAIR
1&2Turning ¼ right, step L to left(1), Turning ¼ right, step R beside L(&), Step L back(2) (6.00)

[25-32] EXTENDED CROSS SHUFFLE (TURNING ¼ LEFT); SIDE ROCK, CROSS SHUFFLE
1&2&3&Making a gradual ¼ left turn, cross L over R(1), step R slightly to right(&), Cross L over R(2), step R slightly to right(&), Cross L over R(3), step R slightly to right(&),

5-6Rock R to right(5), recover weight onto L(6)
7&8Cross R over L(7), step L to left(&), cross R over L(8)
Start again
THE 3 RESTARTS are easy to hear as they each come after a musical interlude.
ENDING (wall 10): Do a ½ turn on the extended cross shuffle (counts 25-27) so that you’ll end facing 12.00.
This dance was specially choreographed to teach various types of shuffles to my beginner class.
It’s titled “Take It EZ” because I had to keep reminding my students to “relax, take it easy, don’t rush”!
Have fun!
