Choreography credit: Yes - the first 16 counts do feel like the Electric Slide.
Hats off to the original choreographer - and to the choreographers of Gary's video, for using the
dance! I've made some adjustments and added the last 16...to help it phrase even better!

It's easy - and FUN! Ahhhhh - makes it feel like summer again!
