Count In: 48 counts from beginning of track
Intended to be done as a circle mixer dance. Partners will create inner and outer circles facing each other (so inner circle faces out, outer circle faces in). Partners start out directly across from one another. When doing the grapevines, follow the circular line of dance, not squared to a wall. You'll switch partners in the last 4 counts as you walk in going slightly to your left to the person who was next to your previous partner.
