ACROSS FLOOR
Music: A New Day Has Come- Celine Dion

** A big reason I chose this song is for it’s waltz. The counting is ONE two three FOUR five six. But what you need to make sure is that you fill your space. So don’t hit it hard on FOUR start it on FOUR and work it through five six. Keep it flowy.

Hold two counts of six.
Step right 1
Brush left foot through 2 3
Step left 4
While turning on left foot brush right foot back through to a backwards arabesque 5 6
Cross left over right 1 2 3
Unwind 4 5 6
Repeat 4 times
