First it was her shower where I came up with the steps to the dance "Out of Habit" and now it's "R-E-S-P-E-C-T" which was choreographed in her kitchen, dining room & laundry room. Thanks Chris. One of these days we will get to choreograph a dance together!! Dance as written for the first 3 walls. On the 4th wall (right side wall) end with the jazz box to face the front wall (omit the final 8 counts 33-40) & then start the dance from the beginning to keep the dance phrasing properly. Enjoy & have fun!
