The Bootleg is most commonly danced to “bootleg” by BRIM. Any upbeat track in a similar tempo works once you know the steps.

Is the Bootleg an intermediate line dance?+

Do you need a partner to dance the Bootleg?+

How do I practice the Bootleg at home?+

Work through the step sheet one 8-count at a time at a slow tempo. Once each section feels automatic, chain two together, then run the whole dance to music.

What is a line dance?+
