Restart: During the 3rd wall dance to count 48 (***) then restart the dance from the

beginning.


Ending: At the beginning of wall 8 the music will slow down, you could simply end the

dance there, however I prefer to dance at the slower pace. You will then end the

dance facing the front wall at count 28.


Note: This dance has a 2 Step rhythm throughout, except for two instances where extra

Quick counts are added.
