Choreographer’s Notes
The dance is designed to be very easy to learn and follow for Beginning dancers, but also fun for experienced dancers to add enhancements. Optional styling suggestions follow (Think Michael Jackson)
Section 1: Fists overhead and elbows out on heel pop, or replace with pelvic tilt/belt grab.
Section 2: Turn backward walks into a moonwalk.
Section 3: Add shoulder isolations and transfer weight a little farther right on each hip bump.
Section 4: Do the Thriller monster arms with the knee hitch. Drag the left leg like a zombie on the last 4 counts.
