Optional Variation: Only to be danced twice! When you are dancing the pattern during the 3rd and 9th rotations only, replace the first 4 counts of Section D with:

Step R forward, HOLD
3,4
Step L forward HOLD
 
You’ll only ever dance this little variation facing a 3 o’clock and a 9 o’clock wall.
The feel of the music will change slightly – so listen for that as your cue!
