I saw this dance at an event and liked it so much I compiled this step sheet for myself and others. I watched several demo and instructional videos, many of which contain regional variations, so this may not be exactly the way YOU do it, and I don’t mean to imply this is the ONLY way to do it and mistakes are mine, not the choreographer’s. In keeping with the soul line/step dance tradition, feel free to add your own styling. Regardless of how you do it, you’ll have fun. Lisa McCammon, May 2014
