CELEBRATING 15 YEARS OF CHILL FACTOR: The reason I called the dance 'FACTOR 15', is because 15 years ago when I was in a bar on a Spanish island called Majorca I came across the music and created the dance ‘CHILL FACTOR’ I still can not believe Chill Factor is nearly 15 years old and is danced everywhere around the world, I love it today as much as I did all that time ago, so thank you to all for dancing it with me!!! I hope you like this new dance.
ANOTHER NOTE: I have also created a mini version of this dance called Factor AB, this is ideal so you can floor split.
