OPTIONAL ENDING Dance is only done 5 times so to remain on front wall, substitute 2 half turns in section 6. Continue dance to end then repeat sections 7 and 8 During the basic cha 8s you can substitute chase turns for the rock steps Final 8 can be sailor steps or shuffles, traveling back To protect knees, keep the steps small on the final 8 Special thanks to Rob Fowler for inspiring my last 8 counts. Imitation is the most sincere form of flattery!
