Dads Dont Die by Ivonne Verhagen (NL) - November 2025 - 16 Count, 4 Wall, Absolute Beginner Dance
I created this dance especially for my father, who passed away recently. It is my heartfelt tribute to him.
He was my best friend, my hero, and the greatest example I could ever wish for.
Right now, I still don’t know how to carry this loss or where to place the emptiness he left behind. But this
song, and this dance, are my way of holding him close, of honouring the man who shaped my life with his
love. Dad… I love you and will never forget you. This one is for you
