HIDEAWAY CHA
Choreography by: Joanne Brady, Jamie Marshall & Jo Thompson
A -- 32 count, 4 wall, Intermediate level line dance
Music: Dance With Me by Debelah Morgan
| Notes: The dance works best if you start after 8 counts on the word "dance". If not, you can wait 40 counts and then start. The song is not perfectly phrased, but the syncopated sailors will go with words "and dance the night away" almost every time. This song is based on the classic melody "Hernando's Hideaway", thus the name of the dance. | |
