CHOREOGRAPHER’s NOTE’s
Dedication: This dance is dedicated to Judi Harrington. She asked me to choreograph a dance to an Elton John song for her. The result was “La Femme Nikita”, I showed her the dance… her response was “Nikita” is the only Elton John song I don’t like… oh well back to the drawing board lol.

COUNTRY TRACK
Alt Music: “I Want To Be The One (3:56)” by Lonestar (24 count intro, 79bpm)Album: “I’m Already There”
Wall 4: RESTART - dance upto count 8 in Section 1 and restart the dance. Restart will be on your 3 o’clock wall.
Wall 6: MINI-TAG – 2 count tag needed. Dance all the way through the dance until the slow unwind, and unwind over 6 counts (instead of 4 counts). Tag will be on your the home wall (12 o’clock).

POP TRACK
Alt Music: “Holding Onto You (3:28)” by Liberty X (32 count intro, 87bpm) CD Single: “Holding Onto You” by Liberty X Album: “Thinking It Over” by Liberty X
