I have included some Soul Line Dance style in this dance with the stomps. The stomps give this dance its character, make as much noise as possible when you stomp to hear the rhythm - it sounds cool with a whole room of dancers doing the stomps at the same time. The "Soul" look is dancing down into the floor, knees bent and not bouncy.
