TAG For "This Cat's On A Hot Tin Roof" only, this tag is danced only once, after the 2nd wall (when facing front again) ¼ MONTEREY TURN X 41-2Touch right toe to right side, bring right beside left making ½ turn right
3-4
Touch left toe to left side, bring left beside right
5-16
Repeat steps 1-4 three more times, making a full turn in total
Stop abruptly with hand movements, which give the dance a stylish, jazzy finish. You will finish on a back wall. At around beat 5 or 6 (when you are doing your right shuffle) you will hear the rhythm of the music change, and this warns you that the ending is coming. At beat 12, hitch your knee as normal, but instead of going into a left shuffle on beats 13 and 14, just point your left toe to the left side, with your left knee slightly bent, and with your hands splayed with your palms facing forward. Hold as the music ends.
