Choreographer's note: The final section may well require a little bit more attention than the
others, but should not prove a problem to the Advanced Beginner dancers within the new levels.
As for the words of this song....Unfortunately and sad to say, this situation is all too common.
And given the simplicity of the dance, may give the dancer time to reflect on the words.

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