Dance is done as a slow romantic dance like Desperado Wrap, but works very well as a faster dance also. This dance can also be done when everyone else is doing 2-step by going forward on count 1-8, 21-28, 37-44.
Dance can also be done as a mixer by having the man move forward and the lady stay in place during the shuffles on counts 49-56.
