  • Those were steps that were taught to you in our bronze 1 class

  • and of course our bronze 1 DVD. So here is a complete description

  • of the counts and the individual steps linked together for you.

  • We start on the long side of the room in dance form,

  • dancing a whisk and chasse, one-two-three,

  • normal three-eights turn to the right, one-two-three, hesitation change,

  • one-two-three, a reverse turn, one-two-three, one-two-three.

  • At this point I’m going to turn this corner and start to go down

  • the short side of the room by using the whisk, one-two-three,

  • I turn the whisk to the left, a chasse, one-two and three, a natural turn

  • on the turn quarter, one-two-three, an outside change, one-two-three,

  • and now a natural spin turn to go around this corner,

  • one-two-three, four-five-six,

  • one-two-three.

  • I will now start from the beginning again and dance this second

  • long side of the room same routine; whisk, chasse, two and three,
