Desert Walk (May'10)

Desert Walk

Choreographed by:

Niels Poulsen, Denmark (May 10)

Music:

Desert Walk by DJ Kato Feat Outlandish (CD: 3:32min)

Descriptions:

64 count - 4 wall - Beginner level line dance

Intro: 64 counts from first beat in music (app. 30 seconds into track). Start with weight on L foot 

Note: Start facing 6:00 when doing it to the music, but teach it starting at 12:00… By starting the dance facing 6:00 you’ll end facing 12:00 when the music finishes. Makes sense?...
