The Hip Hop has 96 counts. The Hip Hop Bang Bang has 64 counts. The 32 count Cowboy Hip Hop is probably the cutest of the Hip Hops. It is an easy dance for all ages.
This becomes a "super fun" dance when danced in lines facing. Have half the floor face west and half face east for a Contra Line dance. It may also be done with two lines facing.
