Chorus

  • Clashes:
    • Top row smites bottom row once
    • Bottom row smites top row once
    • Top row smites bottom row twice
    • Bottom row smites top row twice
  • Half hey.
  • Repeat

Notes

Choreographed on January 26, 2021.

The internet sea shanty sensation. Entirely choreographed on Zoom, for Zoom. The first native Zoomington dance not adapted from existing dances (though its form borrows heavily from Fieldtown).
