Love the dance but with the syncopated heel switches/heel hooks, it looks more like an Easy Beginner. I'd teach it as a 1.5, Easy Beginner.

Alexander August 20, 2024

I was a little bit in doubt whether to call it an Absolute Beginner or a Beginner so I think you are right, it is somewhere in between...

I love this ! Would you allow me to add a flick after the hook?
Switch and switch and heel hook heel flick vine 6.7.8 ?

Alexander September 9, 2024

Thank you, Allie. Feel free to do the flick as an alternative. If you are teaching the dance, please teach the dance 'as is' as well. (but as I said, feel free to add the flick as a harder option)

AllieD September 9, 2024

Thanks, I just need them to grasp there's an extra half count in there before they put their weight on the right foot. I'll make sure they know the original too ! You're the best !!

Alexander September 10, 2024

Thanks, Allie. And thank you for teaching my dance. I really appreciate it! :)
