The waltz is slow,
which makes it much harder to do because you can’t
fudge any of the steps and you balance and timing is much
more critical.

64 counts, 2 walls, Easy
Intermediate level. Song by Kurt Darren
Looks harder on
paper than it really is… it’s a good fun dance that
is easy to learn.
Don’t forget to shimmy while you do the paddle turns -
and the prissy steps
on the spot need attitude too!
This is the same
singer who sings Af en Af (Happy Dance) and once
again you can’t
understand a word he sings.
The English
translation is ridiculous….. perhaps it’s better in Africaans?

This is a tricky little dance

It’s really slow, and that makes it harder. Anyone can dance
fast, because it’s easy to fudge the
steps, but to dance slowly takes good
balance, good timing and good execution .. not easy!

By The Tail
32 counts, 2 walls, Easy Intermediate Level, Song by

I’ve
never had a tiger by the tail …. Well, not literally anyhow. But I am familiar
with the feeling of holding onto
something
that is pulling me forward faster then I
really want to go and being too scared
to let go in case it turns
around
and bites me. I guess that’s what it
feels like to have a tiger by the tail… my line dance career has been a bit like that at times! (-:
AND I BET THAT’S NOW TIGER WOODSFEELS LATELY!! Hehehe
This
dance is easy but it’s not for new beginners.
It feels a bit familiar to me at the end and I think it is
Pick A

you remember the bit where we used to
run fwd and be silly?
Hope
you can still remember how to skip

same. Could you please name the dance,

I

Although easy, this
dance still has a bit of a challenge about it and is not intended
as a beginner dance. I have typed the lyrics of the song on the
step sheet so you can
sing along as you
dance.. Just sing ‘all I want to do is waltz with you’ instead of
singing ‘all I want to do is live with
you’. It’s such a beautiful song!
