REPEAT

Mixer - 10 Step Mixer (Burlington, Vermont Style) When this dance is done as a mixer 6 shuffle steps are used at the end rather than 4. The women crosses in front of her partner on the FIRST shuffle beat and takes 4 shuffles to cross to the man dancing behind her. They then have 2 shuffles to get in sync.THE CROSS GOES LIKE THIS: MEN1-6Shuffle forward left, right, left, right, left, right (a total of 6 shuffle step)WOMEN1Use first shuffle to step to front and left side of partner,2Second shuffle turn back towards outside of dance floor,

Remember: In the mixer, the women travels and does SIX shuffle steps at the end instead of four to make the partner change. The women must leave their partner at the first shuffle step, it takes them four (counting the first one) to get around to their next partner, then two for them to do together before the Left heel tap in front.
