BLUE MOON SHUFFLE
demonstrated by Di Dawson
in Lindean Village Hall

For Demonstration purposes only, the First and Second walls in this clip are danced at BEGINNER LEVEL - all easy steps with only 1/4 pivot and 1/2 pivot turns. Walls Three onwards are danced at IMPROVER + level showing FULL TURNS as the alternative to WALK steps. EASY TAG at the end of wall 5 - Jazzbox - makes the dance fit perfectly with the music phrasing.

MENTIONED IN DISPATCHES
It's really good to know that other clubs and classes are doing my dances, and especially when it appears in a club's top 10 dances as printed in various magazines, reviewed on-line, or included in a teaching survey.
This page will mention YOUR name or club as and when I hear about it...
Thank you for your votes, reviews and teaching my dances - it really means a lot to me.

Chris Cleevley of Chris'tal Connections, Long Harborought, Oxfordshire, reviewd BLUE MOON SHUFFLE in Linedancer Magazine, July 2008 issue. She wrote..."This 32-count improver level dance was a very easy teach. It has one tag at the end of wall 5, which is a jazz box. The music is a great country tack and was a welcome change from all the funky music around at the moment. We really enjoy it."
