Intro: 8 Counts Sequence: AB AB Ending
Note: The music begins slowly therefore our counting is slow and will continue this pattern throughout the dance. The choreography has a blend of styles but because of the counting it has almost a rolling count feeling when danced.
Special mention and huge thank you to Niels Poulsen for sharing this beautiful track with us!!
