Written especially to introduce “triple” steps to the beginner dancer. Works with a variety of music genres.
Choreographer’s note: I choreographed this dance to the Usher track but it works equally well with these other songs. Some are slower, some are faster. Hopefully there is something here for everyone’s pleasure – or try it to another song you like.
