Very special thanks to Flatlander for his input and his phenomenal dance skills, to Debbie Maxwell for her valuable feedback, and to Keith Riess for being my dance partner who also helped with describing arm movement in the step sheet as this is my very first pattern partner choreography. A huge thank you to Tony Romeo and the iconic dance venue “Prospector’s Steakhouse & Saloon” in New Jersey for hosting my workshop. ♥

NOTE: The partner dance can be easily changed into a 4-wall line dance by replacing counts 7&8 in the very last section (ladies’ version) by a ¼ turn left chasse, now facing 3:00. Ending: At the end of the last wall (facing 3:00), add cross R over L, unwind ¼ left, now facing the front wall. Ta-da.
