Background[]
The routine takes place on the outside of the Palace of Versailles, lit up in orange against the night sky. The dancers stand on a wide walkway with small trees on either side. At a different point in the routine, the dancers face the opposite way on this walkway, with a fountain in a large circular pond in a large garden visible in the background. At a different portion of the routine, the dancers are inside the palace, in the Hall of Mirrors. The hall is decorated for a ball and ornate orange chandeliers hang from the ceiling. The ball takes place further down the hall, full of well-dressed dancers.
Gold Moves[]
There are 2 Gold Moves in this routine:
Gold Move 1: Move your left arm up and your right arm down, and then bring them together, while spreading and closing your legs and facing the left side. The left leg must be placed in front of the right one. This move occurs within two half beats.
Gold Move 2:
- P1: Wave your right hand while moving your arm and your torso to the left in a semicircle.
- P2: Same as P1, but while facing the right side and without moving your arm and torso.
