This is meant to be a beginner floor split for the wonderful dance written by Jo Thompson Szymanski, Guyton Mundy, and John Robinson, because everyone should be able to dance to this fun track. IF you are doing this alone and not as a floor split, you may want to increase the tempo by 4-5%

TAG: done once, starting and ending at 12:00. Don't panic--these are familiar combinations and they repeat and/or mirror. Note: The tempo for counts 1-32 feels slower, but does not change.
