BootStepper

Note: This dance is a modified version of Don Deyne?s ?Shaggin? the Line.?

The first 24 counts (MAIN) are done each wall; the music determines when the various tags are done. My suggestion is to listen to the song while looking at the step sheet a few times before you actually try the dance.

The Order of the patterns is:

1. MAIN, FREEZE

2. MAIN, STEP TOUCHES

3. MAIN, FREEZE

4. MAIN, SUZY-Q

5. MAIN, FREEZE, MAMBO STEPS

6. MAIN, FREEZE

7. MAIN, SUZY-Q

8. MAIN, STEP TOUCHES

9. MAIN, FREEZE

10. MAIN, ENDING

Instructor should call out all tags for the class until the class gets used to when the tags are done ? make sure you call them out before you get to the full turn on beats 23-24!
