Oh My Darlin’ was originally choreographed in 2007 by Fran Thomas (USA) as a 32-count, 2 wall, beginner/intermediate mixed rhythm dance. I have always liked both the dance and the music and feel they deserve to be given a new chance at life!
A few minor changes have been made to the original choreography.
