Constantinople
Choreographed by Joan Price🇺🇸 & Robert Rice🇺🇸
Step Sheet
32 Count, 2 Wall
After teaching "It's Istanbul" (chor. Jo and John Kinser) to our intermediate dancers, we wanted a super simple dance to this delightful song for our new dancers. (We used the Kinsers' tag so that we'd be doing the same steps at that point when we danced a split floor.)
