RECOMMENDED MUSIC: “Dance Dance Dance” by Wilson Phillips (Album: California or Princess Diaries 2 Soundtrack) (16-count intro).
PRACTICE MUSIC: “Jump On The Rhythm And Ride (Dance)” by Kool & The Gang (Album: Unite) (32-count intro); “Veo Veo” by Hot Banditoz (Album: Bodyshaker) (32-count intro); this song requires a 2-beat hold (it’s fun to shimmy in place of the hold) to stay on phrase after 2nd and 7th repetitions—I use this to teach beginners how to hear phrasing properly.
