No new dance this week, so why not have another look at last weeks dance from Kate Sala. Written to a current popular track from Alesha Dixon called 'The Boy Does Nothing'. The dance is called Madiba Mambo, a 32 count 4 wall Intermediate dance. Only 32 counts but as is usual with Kate's dances, there are a couple of tricky counts in this one. No tags or restarts. This dance really fits well to the music, and is well worth having a go at
The week before's dance was a very easy one from Kathy Chang and Sue Hsu from the USA. Called 'It Hurts', it's a 48 count 4 wall Improver dance. A very enjoyable one to a track of the same name from Lena Philipsson, this one you must have a go at.This music is from the Eurovision Song Contest 2004, have a look at the contest video here
Very popular with our class is the new one from Alan Birchall, called 'Human-Dancer', it's an Intermediate 64 count 2 wall dance to a brill track called 'Human' from the Killers. No tags or restarts, and the steps are not too difficult, but it's quite fast. This is a great dance and a must try. Watch as Pauline shows you the steps and then the dance.
