Music
: Listen To Your Woman....by: Steve Kolander

CHOREOGRAPHERS NOTE: This is a two-wall challenging intermediate dance and starts when the artist begins his lyrics (32 beat introduction -start on 33rd beat). This is a graceful and delicate dance that requires you to really listen to and feel the music. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS: "Listen To Your Woman" is one of my favourite songs. While creating this dance, I envisioned how Susan Thompson, Dan Morrison and Francis Gadassi would look dancing to this song. Their extraordinary style and graceful dancing inspired me to choreograph this dance. Special thanks and acknowledgment to my daughter, Jackie, for her scrutiny and input while I was working on this dance. I love ya, Jackster !!
