• All of the A’s are always done to front wall (12 o’clock)
• Tag and half Tag are always done to front wall
• On your 1st B you only do 16 counts and then restart into B @ 3 o’clock
• On your 4th B you start it at 9 o’clock but at end instead of ½ turn do ¾ turn to put you back to front wall to start A
• 1st C is at 9 o’clock finishes at front wall
• 2nd C is at 6 o’clock finishes at 9 o’clock (go into B)
I know it’s a lot to remember but practice makes perfect!!!
Thanks so much for taking the time to learn it and put up with me and my song choices with horrible phrasing. ;-)
