BRAZIL
- A 32 count, two
wall dance done to "Brazil" by Bellini. The fun music has
an up tempo Latin beat.
(VIDEO)
DUCK SOUP - (New
VIDEO) This is a
Beginner Level "Swing" line dance that can be done to many medium
tempo songs. It incorporates some fun steps from the swing era.
How did I
come up with the name "Duck Soup"? I saw the term
"duck soup" in a World War Two magazine. There was a
column dealing with slang phrases used in the war years. I
saw the term, "duck soup" and read that it meant....
"something done easily". Since my new line dance was an
easy "swing" style line dance... I thought the name fit.
FEEL GOOD RUMBA -
An Easy Intermediate level line dance that can
be done in either a smooth and slower tempo or to a fast and fun beat.
You can change the 'feel of the dance" with the "tempo"
of the selected music. (VIDEO)
FLIP, FLOP & FLY
- *NEW*
- This is a fun energetic Easy Intermediate line dance done to a great song by
Big Joe Turner called "Flip, Flop & Fly". For a
slower tempo song, I suggest "Burning Love" by Elvis Presley.
