I love this Simon. I really hope Chris teaches it. It may be levelled high intermediate but looks very doable. Well done once again..Anne Herd..xx

Dancers say all the time if they love the music ,chances are that they will love the dance.For me as a teacher this was weird because when I first saw this dance in the line up I immediately discarded it because I, did'nt hate this song, but it did nothing for me for years.
But when I checked out the dance everything changed for me. I enjoyed the dance so much, I'm now loving the song. Well done Simon
everything about this dance appeals to me .I will teach it tomorrow and await the reaction from the gang.
Best Wishes Victoria and the Gang. England

This is one of my favourite Elton John songs. Now I can dance and sing to my heart's content. Thank you Simon for choosing this beautiful piece of music!
