Change of A part into A*:
You do A 7 times. The 2nd, 4th and 5th time you go from A to A*. A* is A plus a step change of counts 31&32 to: Counts Out out RL, in in RL
&7&8
Step R out to R side (&), step L out to L side (7), step R to centre (&), step L next to R (8) …
Styling: step out out on your heels 6:00
Suggestion of how to teach the dance:
1
Teach the first A. Try with music
2
Explain and practise A*. Practise A again, with counts 17-32 of A* PLUS counts 1-16 of A. Explain this takes you to your first B. Try these 3 A’s with music
3
Then teach section B and C. Practise A+A*+A+B+C with music
4
Now explain the phrasing with 2 A* + the first 16 counts of A. Followed by B and C. Then add the original A followed by the two B’s. Now explain the Ending (the extra box + the final bow!).
Practise the whole dance with music!
