Teaches for Sweet Attraction:
1) My second attempt at a teaching video and a video dancing it with cuing:

   Teach: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YfCPB4esVG8

   Dance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2o6d9I9doQo

The first videos are still available:
   Teach: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJ-y70qari4
   Dance w turns: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JLZlV06Qtaw
   Dance w/o turns: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2X9W1sz7L34  (a better option for removing the 3/4 turns is 1/4 right then mambo 1/4 left, then side together)
2) One of the choreographers, Dee Musk, did a full teach on Streamline:

3) Joey (in Cornwall) taught it during her Thursday night class: 

https://www.facebook.com/joey.prieur/videos/10157658999720756. You may need to be on Facebook to watch it, I'm not sure. She starts teaching Sweet Attraction about 7 1/2 minutes in.
