This dance was choreographed for my improver dance friends to be used as a floor split with Foolish Feelings by Fred Whitehouse & Niels Poulsen. I love dancing their 72-Count Intermediate dance, and I concentrated on creating an improver dance that hit the lyrics with moves that flowed like Foolish Feelings.

ENDING: On the final wall, dance through Count 20. You will be facing 9:00. Repeat counts 17-20. You are now facing 12:00. Push right hand forward in a stopping motion. TADA!!!!
