The music is available on the movie soundtrack "The Adventures Of Ford Fairlane" |
This dance was created for the Faast Country Cruise 2000, and was choreographed in |
Miami the night before we left to board the ship. We all had a good time dancing this on the ship, |
and thank Jo Thompson for coming up with the idea! |

EXTRAS |
One of the things that makes this dance special are the "Bridges" in the music. After the 3rd, 6th |
and 9th repetition, you will stand in place and raise both arms over your head starting from the |
row closest to the wall and traveling along to the back row. Wait until you see the person in front |
of you raise their arms, then follow suit, creating a "wave" effect. That should only take 8 counts |
each time it is danced. You will hear this in the music! Don't worry about counting the repetitions. |
The extras will happen on the side walls and the back wall only. |
