All My Heart

Description: 4 Wall Line Dance, 32 Counts, Upper Int-Advanced Level

Choreographer: Bill Bader   604-684-2455  billbader@hotmail.com  http://www.billbader.com

Music: "Like We Never Had A Broken Heart" by Trisha Yearwood (76 bpm)

Please note the slow tempo of this song.  It is my intention to offer smooth flowing choreography to match the feel of this slow, incredibly beautiful song.  The rhythm pattern in each 8-count is different and will take some getting used to, but this guarantees a strong match with the music.

A word of caution to instructors:  Your challenge will be to keep the walk-throughs slow enough!
