Jingle Bells in Bhangra dance

My Boogie Shoes & Booty Music

Please come at 7pm on Wed for revision. We shall do 2 dances, My Boogie Shoes, choreographed by the Mirandas and Booty Music .I can't find any video clips for My Boogie Shoes which is a very ,very simple dance to a great oldie by KC & The Sunshine Band.
Booty Music is currently a very popular dance choreographed by Jackie Miranda, Jo Thompson and Judy Mcdonald. They won 1st prize in the Windy City Line Dance Event. Can't wait to try out this exciting & fun dance. Very challenging in the Shoulder Bumps (not a shimmy)

For Saturday, we shall do Bosa Nova. This will complete all the dances for 2009.
