| Note: |
| *"Cajun" shuffles make reference to the fact that you will not "double-time" the |
| beat and race through the shuffles. this dance has a fun- Cajun pulse (the same one |
| you hear in Louisiana Hot Sauce). |
| On ** your body will turn at a slight angle on the hitches- making it very comfortable to do |
| the paddle turn at the end. You should think of the timing as "1-&-2-&-3-&-4-&" throughout the dance. |
