Gretchen Wilson or The Beatles

Hi everyone

I have written two new country dances, both to be taught at a workshop in Skegness in August and in South Africa in September.

Here's the first one. It's been choreographed to Rebel Child by Gretchen Wilson but has an alternative track which is I Feel Fine by The Beatles. You get to choose which one you like the best! The PDF version of the script can be obtained from our site but has also been sent to Linedancer and the usual places.

Here's a link to the video
