COUPLES VARIATION

This dance can very easily be altered and used as a
couple's dance by changing a couple of steps.
Position: Sweetheart
Travel:     Counter-clockwise around outside of dance floor
Steps 17 - 20 Both partners should turn here... just drop your hands momentarily, rejoining
                     when you get to step 21
Step 28          Instead of executing this spin, the couple should remain joined with their hands
                     and simply scuff the RIGHT foot forward.
