32 Restart facing new wall

Wall 4 is a short wall. Dance first 16& counts, then restart.

Tempo changes on Wall 7. Dance first 16 ½ counts then hold for 4 counts and restart

dance on 'With her broken wing'. To finish dance at front on Wall 8, dance first 14 ½

counts then touch L toe behind R and unwind ½ turn. Count for that will be

1,2&3&4&5,6&7,8. Great song. A dance that needs to be danced with feeling, really

stepping out and moving into steps.
