Gail does not have a tag in her choreography - but both videos that use the music "Old Bones" put a different tag in. I use the music "Fly Like A Bird" and it works perfect. I'm sure others have gotten different music to work...like the new video using "Trashy Women" - BUT "Old Bones" does not work to the steps choreographed by Linda Oats.

My teacher just repeats the last 8 counts (shoulders) after the third repetition and it works okay.

I teach this and I add a tag - add extra sways (as the saying goes "you can hear it in the music"), otherwise your steps are out of sync. I'll try it to Fly Like A Bird - thanks.
