Black Magic Woman (aka aBMW)
Choreographed by William Sevone🇬🇧
Step Sheet
48 Count, 4 Wall
Music note:- Use only the 3m 17s (approx) ‘radio edit’ version for this dance.
Choreographers note:- A strong ‘Cuban Motion’ with a short step will not only be aesthetically pleasing
but will also have the desired effect of keeping the dancer within the tempo (and rhythm) of the music.
Always remember - 'The beat may reach your feet - but the rhythm should electrify your soul'.
Dance starts, within the instrumental intro at 41secs. Count 3-2-1.. then start the dance.
Rock. Recover. Diagonal Triple. Diag Rock. Recover. Diagonal Triple (1:30)
2x Diagonal Rock-Recover-Diagonal Backward Triple (1:30).
3/4 Right. Coaster. 2x Diagonal Step. Back-Side-Forward (12:00)

4x Walk Backward. 2x Rock Fwd-Recover. 1/4 Right (3:00)
IMPORTANT: On first wall OMIT the last count (&) after 48.
Do the same on Wall 6 (end of the dance) and omit the ‘&’ so that the dance finishes facing ‘home’ (12:00).
After this point and for a few seconds only the music quickens ups as it fades out. To add a flourish to the end try including forward and backward Coasters.
