| OPTIONAL BREAKS: |
| Note that the following steps are optional. If you want to dance through the breaks, feel free |
|
| The phrasing of the song is: |
| Verse (break), Chorus (with a break inside) |
| Verse (break), Chorus (with a break inside) |
| Instrumental |
| Verse (break), Chorus repeated with no breaks until the end |
|
| If you want the dance to fit the breaks in the music, you will need to make slight variations in the steps. |
| Each verse ends with a break on the last 8 counts of the dance (counts 49-56) with Shania talking. |
| To hit the break replace steps 49-56 with: |
|
| HOLD! GIMME A BREAK! #1 |
| &49 | | Hop right foot forward, step left foot together |
| 50-56 | | Hold with weight on left foot. Shania will be talking. For fun, yell along with her |
| 1st time she says "okay, so you're a rocket scientist" (facing right side wall) |
| 2nd time she says "okay, so you're Brad Pitt" (facing left side wall) |
| 3rd time she says "okay so you've got a car" (facing right side wall) |
| Then restart the dance from the beginning right after she says the words "That Don't". |
| You will start on the word "impress" |
|
| During the choruses there is another break you may want to hit which comes right after the |
| touch turn left on counts 37-40. You would normally do the right cross rock & right coaster step |
| back at this point, but you can substitute: |
| GIMME A BREAK! #2 |
| 37-40 | | Stomp right foot forward, hold with weight on left foot |
| Then continue the dance with count 41 |
