MY HEART TONIGHT

CHOREOGRAPHER: William Sevone (August 31st 2008)
COUNT: 48
TYPE: 4 Wall Waltz Line Dance
LEVEL: Intermediate
MUSIC: If I Give My Heart by Eva Cassidy-93 bpm/31 mpm ("Somewhere")

Choreographer's note: Ideally suited for the experienced Advanced Beginner dancer
who has just moved into the Intermediate level

This is a 'soft' waltz - not a 'military two step'
Soften the edges - let your mind and not just your body, feel the music

Always remember - 'The beat may reach your feet - but the rhythm should electrify your soul'

Dance starts after the 24 count intro on the word 'give' as in
'If I GIVE my heart to you tonight...."
