Cupid - Cupid Shuffle (Instructional Video)

Hey Midnight Madness Party Animals. Wow, yesterday was fantastic. Yesterday was just so much fun with you sharing pictures of your party dresses. Thank you so much for that. Today we are going to learn a dance! It's called the Cupid Shuffle and guess what? You don't need a partner for this. Just some dance floor space! It's really easy and so much fun. I learned this on a cruise a couple years ago and have danced it since at parties and weddings. For today's comment prize, let us know what you thought about this dance. Did you like it, not like it? How long did it take you to catch on? Did you already know this dance? Share with us a special dance memory or your favorite dance? Just leave your comment here on this post.
Once you have mastered your skills, click on the official Cupid Shuffle video here!
So play the video and dance the Cupid Shuffle with us!!!
We'll be back with more fun tomorrow!!!!
