Foote note…Tekapo twist. On a recent line dancing excursion, a near road accident and talk between ‘us girls’ (Chrissie, Judith & myself) led to a new name for a dance step-Tekapo drift but no steps. So when I choreographed this dance and was unable to find a term to cover the last 4 steps…… and as it has a twist…… it had to be called Tekapo Twist. Tekapo drift to come later!!lol
