Choreographer: Preben Klitgaard, Denmark.

Suggested Music: Smokie: Rose-a-Lee
Type: 48 counts  + restarts, 4 walls
Level: Beginner/Intermediate
Note: This dance is characterised by its change of speed and by its restarts, but don't let that put you off. The dance is a real floor-filler and easy to learn.
The music has 2 speeds: slow and fast! You start out slowly, but once the fast music kicks in you restart the dance from count 1. Once the music returns to its slower pace, you restart the dance from count 1 again, no matter where you are in the dance.
