Absolute Beginner
(Amarillo is a great track for parties!)
This is the very first dance that I always teach to absolute beginners and at parties. Both songs are
amusing, not fast, and have a strong beat which new dancers can follow easily. The steps are very
basic indeed, with a simple 1/4 turn at the end so I can see how well the dancers are coping.
Huge thanks to Tina Argyle, Cheryl Carter, Val and Sandie Myers, Viv Bishop, and Judy Baily for all
their support, and especially to Anne Reilly for somehow managing to teach me to dance! xx
