TERRACOTTA Choreographed by Michele Perron Dance Expressions, Aug '98 Box 556, Lions Bay, BC, V0N 2E0, Canada Phone: 1-604-921-9791 E-mail: smokeyplaces@hotmail.com or lstrong@uniserve.com Home Page: http://users.uniserve.com/~lstrong/Michele.htm |
Description: 64-count, 1-wall, line dance
Choreographer’s Note: This dance is based on Samba rhythm 1 a2, 3 a4, etc., with no movement on the ‘&’. The basic characteristic of samba is the "lilting bounce". This is subtle and more a "feeling" of bounce.
