It's Four In The Morning
This is music for Intermediate dancers as it is faster in tempo and allows the dance to flow!
After doing the dance four times, there is a 24 count tag. Do four 1/4 turning waltz boxes
(SEE steps-37-42) starting and ending at 12:00. First 1/4 turn is from 12:00 to 9:00

Tanya Montana
After the second time through the dance, there is a 24 count interlude. Do four waltz boxes
turning 1/4 each time starting from 12:00 and returning to 12:00. Restart dance to end of music.
Keep doing turning boxes at the end as the music fades.

For beginners, just dance through tags and restarts in each song.
