OPENER    Basic - SSD Week 1

Circle left
Make believe you're in a jungle movie
Watch the baby elephants go by

Left allemande the corner, dosado your own
Allemande left and weave the ring now
The beat is groovy in this jungle movie
Swing your girl and you promenade
Go
[4 measures sax solo]

FIGURE    Mainstream, corner progression

Heads promenade you travel halfway
Down the middle pass the ocean then, extend
Recycle 'round, sweep 1/4 more
Right & left thru and turn your lady
Come on and square thru 3 hands
Swing the corner girl around and you promenade
[4 measures sax solo]

MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic - SSD Week 4

Sides face grand square
[8 measures instrumental]
Left allemande come on and weave that ring
Down in the Congo
Ah, you swing your girl and promenade
Come on and play it
[4 measures sax solo]
