Beginners and absolute beginners line dancers:
Are you ready for Stroll along Cha Cha this week?

Looking forward in the room there is:
Stage front
Window R (on right)
Back wall
Window L (on left)

This is a 4 wall dance.
Moves -
To the Right - Rock replace cha cha cha
To the Left - Rock replace cha cha cha
Weave to the right and rock replace cha cha cha
Weave to the left and rock replace cha cha cha
Then it gets a bit tricky on the turns - to write down and to do πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Turns go like this;
Turn to the back , turn to the window by doing -

a forward step (left foot towards stage) with a 1/2 pivot right turn (turn to the back wall) followed by a cha-cha-cha, and concludes with another forward step (right foot towards back wall) and a 1/4 pivot left turn (turn to the window R) followed by a cha cha cha to finish.
Weight on right foot to start again with left foot
Rock replace cha cha cha …..etc then

We had a good Zhumba class today - very impressive that most of you know all the right moves in the right order - unfortunately I am a bit like that famous Morecambe and Wise sketch (all the right notes not necessarily in the right order) - I know all the right moves not necessarily in the right order …..I hope to do better next week πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ Well done everyone for NOT following me πŸ€·β€β™€οΈπŸ˜‚
