Starting point: Little before the trumpets, at about 0:08.
Note: The dance is a two wall dance, but the two restarts make it a four wall dance. Before 1st restart (on wall 3) you'll be dancing towards walls facing 6 o'clock and 12 o'clock, after the restart you'll be dancing towards wall facing 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock. Then after the 2nd restart (on wall 6) you'll be dancing towards walls facing 6 o'clock and 12 o'clock again.
Also, on the walls where you are restarting, change the count 16 to a step next to left instead of the touch back.

Note: For easier option, leave the heel turns off from counts 1-4, so just step forward on right, touch forward on left, step back on left, touch back on right. Once again, when the music turns to more funkyish, you can show your styling by bending your knees and dropping down a little on counts 2 and 4. Or vary it as you please, this is just a suggestion!
Hands: If you want to use your hands on counts 1-4, feel free. You can keep them next to your body with fingers pointing outwards or you can swing them to the sides. Anything goes!
