Although I've choreographed many dances in different locations - the shower, the kitchen etc, this is the first time I've choreographed a dance in a caravan. Chris & I have been trying to find the time to choreograph together since the success of our first collaboration, Jamaica Mistaka. We, along with Alison Biggs, worked on the dance while at the Dean Brothers festival, A Chance to Dance. Thanks to Alison for trying to write down all our ideas, and for the inspiration for the final part of the dance, which made it into a 32 count dance rather than 64 - and much less to remember! We had a blast coming up with this. We love the funky music with a country theme. Enjoy!
