A THREE-COUNT SWING LINE DANCE

ALT. MUSIC and TIMINGS:
All Your Favorite Bands (The Road Hammers) [68 bpm / 4/4 timing]
I Always Get Lucky With You (George Jones) [71 bpm / ¾ timing]

NOTE: For 6/8 timing, dance to the first beat of each triplet of eighth notes. For all timings, take one step per beat. An “&” is a half beat, and “a(h)” is a quarter beat. Choose “&” or “a” to suit the music. I prefer “a” for the song Whiskey & Water, but “&” works well most of the time, IMO.

Starting position: Left toe pointing to L with weight over RF.
