Step Sheet
64 Count, 2 Wall
Start (64 Count Intro from first heavy beat)
Phrasing: 8 Count tag danced after wall 1.
Note: After count 32 of wall 7, the music changes to a violin playing. Keep dancing until count 32 of wall 8, then step left to left side, cross right over and unwind ¾ turn to 12:00. The music keeps playing quietly for a few more counts, but it is difficult to follow, so this is a nicer end. You may want to fade out there if you can, but isn’t necessary. You could also choose to fade the track after 32 counts of wall 7 before the violin if you wish. Contact me if you need help fading the track.
