VARIATIONS & FORMATIONS
This dance can be performed in multiple formations and versions:

~1. Classic Line Dance (with ¼ turn in Section 1):
– Danced over 4 walls with consistent quarter turns to the right
– Best suited for standard line formations (rows or blocks)

~2. Circle Formation (without ¼ turn in Section 1):
– Danced in one large circle; the dancers rotate gradually to the right

– Alternatively, use a double circle:
– The outer circle faces inward, the inner circle faces outward (back to the center)
– Both circles travel in a clockwise direction

~3. Partner Interaction Options in Circle Formation:
– In Section 4 (Step Touches), dancers clap hands with their partner diagonally to the right
– In Section 1, the two Rumba Boxes can be danced around the person opposite you
