Spotlights for this September…

We’ve waited a few days because of the shock news of Dolly RIP❤️ but we wanted to share with you our new dance Burnin.

It’s an absolute beginner dance we choreographed to Baby I’m Burnin by Dolly Parton.

I rolled this out to my classes last week and it’s pretty fun to do.

We’d love you to check it out.
