Stephen Paterson has written a really lovely dance to this music called Open Season, but some people can’t handle it. This easier dance is for those people. Hope you enjoy  this beautiful piece of music.

Firstly I would like to say that Stephen Paterson’s dance ‘Open Season’ is a fabulous dance and no disrespect is intended by writing this easier dance. It’s just that many people are not able to manage the steps in ‘Open Season’ and I was asked to write something a little easier... so here it is!  My dance is  Easy Intermediate Level but you will need to keep your
mind on the job...... it’s definitely not a beginner dance. Hope you enjoy both the dances to this great piece of music.  See you on the floor sometime..........… Jan
