Choreographer's note: 'Out on the floor' - as perennial as the grass and can be found on some
of the unlikeliest compilations - such is the popularity of this song. This dance script now
contains optional steps and styling (except the full turns) created by the Choreographer
and used to great effect by the more experienced dancers.
Always remember - 'The beat may reach your feet - but the rhythm should electrify your soul'
