This is a couples danced based on Hideaway Cha by Joanne Brady, Jamie Marshall, Jo Thompson
1-2-3-4&5Closed promenade forward (walk, walk, walk, cha-cha-5). Man leads on left lady on right
6-7-8&1Closed rock forward, lock-step back with ¼ turn to face partner (still closed position)
2-3-4&5-6&7-8&1Closed position rocks (slow, slow, quick-quick-slide, hold-&-cross side cha-cha-1)
2-3Closed promenade, rock across in front
4&5Face to face side cha-cha-5, open up to face reverse
6-7Open position (inside hand only) rock across in front, recover to closed position
8&1Face to face side cha-cha-1
2Hold
&3&4&5Foot syncopation just as in line dance (closed position, lady mirror image)
This is where the footwork changes a little from the line dance
CLOSED POSITION TURN
6MAN: Steps / rocks forward on right foot (right ankle to right ankle)
LADY: Rocks back on left foot
7MAN: Sidesteps left foot to the left (¼ turn to the right)
LADY: Recovers forward on right (¼ turn to the right)
8MAN: Recovers forward to right foot (¼ turn to the right)(very little right foot movement here)
LADY: Steps left foot across in front of man and then pivots ¾ turn (on left toe) to the right to promenade position
REPEAT
You can really put a lot of "tango styling" in this. (or "fun" style). This can be done side by side with the line dancers without any problems.
