***The Restarts aren't strictly necessary, so less experienced dancers may prefer to dance through six repetitions of 48 counts each, and will end at 12:00. However, dancers more attuned listening while they dance May prefer to restart after 32 counts during the 3rd and 4th repetitions. The short patterns always start and end at 12:00. With the restarts, the dance ends at the front during the 7th repetition after 32 counts. The restarts will bump the difficulty slightly up.
Sequence with Restarts: 16; 48, 48, 32, 32, 48, 48, 32.
