#16 count intro; counterclockwise rotation; start weight on L
Note: No Tags Or Restarts. While there is more to remember, the steps should be familiar to beginner dancers and the tempo is moderate. The dance makes one complete rotation and ends at the front wall. The music gets a little hard to follow for the first 16 counts or so during the fourth repetition; keep dancing at tempo until the beat kicks back in. Remember that all styling is optional.
