Dance sequence:- 36-44-36-44-36-44-36-44-36-20
Choreographers note:- The dance has an alternate 36-44 count throughout and with the music being typical 4/4 Ska rhythm, the ‘dance’ is deceptively fast.
Because of the tags, even though repetitive, this dance is aimed at the experienced dancer who has just moved into the Advanced Beginner level.
Be fluid with your styling – and read the notes.
Always remember - 'The beat may reach your feet - but the rhythm should electrify your soul'.
