[12:00] Fun Option Once you feel comfortable with the dance you can play with the high lights in the music: leave out the second knee pop (&8) from counts 33-40 on wall 2 and 4 (facing 12:00) and on wall 7 (facing 6:00) and wall 8 (facing 9:00). Just an option, but it makes sense… Contact - niels@love-to-dance.dk - www.love-to-dance.dk
