Transitions from pas de basque into slip step into skip change
Lengthening skip change in bars 17 - 24
Handing in bars 3 - 6, 9 - 16, 17 - 24, 25 - 32
Not too tiring for supporting couples as a first dance in a class
Only 1s begin so can be used as a once-and-to-the-bottom dance if numbers are low
A World shortage of simple jigs to begin a class with!
