Choreographers note:- This has to be on of the most bizarre of collaborations, even by today’s standards.
Tammy Wynette, one of the greatest American country singers ever, performed the vocals on one of the most
seriously silly of all dance songs. And yet it produced one of her most memorable songs –and biggest hits (it also
became her last, as she died in April 1998).
Tammy found her widest popular audience with this song. She reached out beyond her roots - to take a chance
- and what a chance it proved to be.
The longer album version of the song can also be used.. Though in parts it may present a challenge to some.
A general note: A Push Step is similar to a Rock Step – except that the dancer is leaning ‘backward’.
Always remember - 'The beat may reach your feet - but the rhythm should electrify your soul'.
Dance starts on the vocals after the 32 count intro (48 count with album version), feet together, weight on the left foot.
