Note: Dancers: Learning Line Dance Terminology is paramount to your success.
Instructors: This is, and was intended to be a 1-Wall Absolute Beginner dance. Feel free to compensate for 2 or 4 Wall.
Just to Note: I do all of these AB dances in my bi-weekly Intermediate classes, and usually by adjusting the last section (2 or 4 steps) I can make them interesting and fun 4-Wall dances; Email me if I can help. To be clear, for this series…I am not in competition for Beginner+ Dances, tens of thousands already exist; Let’s help the rest to get there!

Studies show that Dance enhances Physical and Mental health! Lord, keep moving us a step at a time. Amen

I love this dance and it's easy to turn into a four-wall by making the left grapevine a 1/4 turn to the left. I like the fact that you've introduced mambos in an easy, non-threatening way. Do you plan to put out a demo video? Thank you for the nice dance.

Hi Jazzbox
I just posted my video on YouTube, and sent the link to George for attachment. I did a video last night with The Eagles "Take It Easy", but it was blocked with a copywrite issue...don't understand all the legalities as I pay for licensing with ASCAP, BMI, and SESAC every year. Anyway, after scrambling for an alternate...the song I used in the video is by Toby Keith titled Should've Been A Cowboy. I love it, think it is as good as my original choice, or better. Hope you like it. BTW I love your ability to think on your feet, meaning your 4-Wall variation. Good job my friend. Stay tuned.

Thank you so much Jan for the lovely demo/teach video. And so sorry for the hassle over song rights. I agree that Should've Been A Cowboy works very well. Thank you again!
