This dance is a fun line dance, Music be done in "school dinner queues", 1 person behind the other. A queue of about 5 people is best as you won't get down a long line to back of queue in 4 counts, which is what is needed. So when teaching this dance, arrange the class so that several rows of about 5 people are formed. It is just a fun dance, choreographed for a special charity dance in aid of Edward Davies, a little boy (4 years old at time of writing) diagnosed with autistic spectrum disorder. he should, after the money has been raised, be able to go to America for treatment that he needs. Last but not least, please enjoy & have lots of fun with this dance!
