This dance was choreographed to go with my friend’s song for a music video that was filmed at VAN’S in Leeds, Alabama. I created it with the idea in mind that it could be broken down into simpler pieces for horse folks to learn sitting around a fire while horse camping. It is essentially four dances in one, and people can dance it the way they need to based on their experience level with line dancing.
I hope everyone enjoys this ORIGINAL LINE DANCE from the music video for the song Rackin Horse by Nitty Gritty GR (Greg Roberts) featuring the J Creek Cloggers and the viral sensation Zeb Ross (“Blue Shirt Guy”). The video shows my line dance students who put a lot of hard work into preparing for the music video shoot. I appreciate every last one of them! Enjoy!!
