Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer - small 5 hip drop arch, bird arms & back lean
Had a very shiny nose - shoulder roll lean rlr, shoulder roll lean lrl

All of the other reindeer - L shoulder pulse L to R
Used to laugh and call him names - double persian turn C
They never let poor rudolph - R shoulder pulse R to L
Join in any reindeer games - double persian turn CC to arms out
- shoulder shimmy
Then one foggy christmas eve - back (R foot) and cha cha cha, back and cha cha cha
