Begin again... This dance has a very different feel when done to a slow groove like Wynonna's "To Be Loved By You". At this slower tempo, you might want to modify the kicks at the beginning to Scuff Kicks (scuff heel forward creating a very low kick). Also for slow songs, you may want to eliminate the Claps at #8 and #12.
