Switch between slow and fast tempo with two restarts.
Wall 4: Slow tempo with restart after first 8 counts, continue with slow all the the way through
Wall 8: Slow tempo (only first 16 counts) restart at 16 counts and go into wall 9 for fast tempo
Wall 12: Slow tempo (song ends after 8 counts)
Verses, bridge, and end: slow tempo
Note on the name of the dance:
In the song God and Country a repeating lyric is “made by God and Country”
In the song Hey Girl a repeating lyric is “it’s who you’re made to be”
This is the first dance I’ve made/choreographed.
These songs are encouraging reminders for me.
I hope you have fun with it!
