There are two Restarts in this dance – on Walls 3 and 5.
In both cases dance up to count 15&, then replace count 16 with:
½ R step R to side
Then Restart the dance from Count 1.
You will be facing 12:00 for the Wall 3 Restart, and 6:00 for the Wall 5 Restart.

Note: You need to hesitate for a few seconds before the Wall 5 restart. In this case, drag the L foot towards the R then slide it forward finally putting weight on it in time to catch Count 1 of the restart (like drawing ¼ of a circle with the L foot in a counter-clockwise direction).

End: The dance ends facing 12:00 at the end of Wall 6. After Count 32, just drag the R foot together with the L and strike a pose.
