After a year and a half this is still requested at every one of our monthly socials. Love the dance and the music. Great job! Thank you.

Sorry about late review. Searching through old dances and came across this one. Wasn't too keen on the music and decided to use Joe Paul Nichols version of 'Storms Never Last'. If you like your music a little more up beat ..... try The Tractors 'Tulsa Shuffle'. My class gave the thumbs up to both tracks.

Just realised this is the 10th anniversary of this dance. Still regularly danced at class. Really nice music and steps.
