Tag (the twist part) as described below
Note from Sue Ann: “Fun for All” (Counts 1-32 below) was written as a dance that could be done to lots of different songs – from oldies to current, country to pop. The song choices are up to you. It works with nearly everything and every tempo.
“Fun for All (With a Twist)” goes specifically to the song “Perm” with the added motions, the “twist” part, coming in at certain parts of the song as described below. Thanks Dancin’ Dean for putting this fun “twist” to the dance!
