NO TAGS OR RESTARTS. I am very much at ease with tags and restarts but am well aware that some dancers (and instructors!) still hate them, so this dance might appeal for that reason alone!
This dance also forms the first 32 counts of the 64-count Improver level dance, Looking For Ways.
Both dances can be done together on a split floor.
