Step Sheet
#8 count intro, start on vocals, 2 restarts
Choreographers Note: There are 2 restarts in the dance, after count 24, on walls 1 & 3. Therefore the dance has a slightly different route around the room for the first 4 walls, so effectively it becomes a 2 wall dance to start with from front to back and then changes to the side walls. So you start at 12:00, then 6:00, fol-lowed by 9:00, and finally 3:00 to start with, before going in a normal sequence clockwise around the room. Don't worry, it's easier than it sounds.
