During the song's intro, you can "get the motor warmed up" by doing sidestep left, close right, sidestep right, close left and repeat until the normal starting count.

LEFT TURNED LEFT, CLOSE TOGETHER, SIDE RIGHT, CLOSE TOGETHER, SIDE LEFT, CLOSE TOGETHER, BACK ON RIGHT TURNED RIGHT, CLOSE TOGETHER

1Step left to left side turned ¼ left. This step may be slightly forward also, creating a sligh diagonal.

2Close right (move the right foot beside left flat but without weight)

3-4Sidestep right, close left

5-6Sidestep left, close right

7Step right back turned ¼ right

8Close left. This returns you to "home" (starting position)

The quarter turns at counts 1 and 7 may be "softened" by starting the ¼ turn on that step and finishing it on the close at counts 2 and 8.

Swinging bent arms forward at count 1, back at count 3, forward at 5 and back at 7 gives the feel of choreography used by 60s groups like the Temptations.
