Dance starts on vocal: “When I need motivation …”

1234Step forward on the right, turn ¼ pivot left, recover on left, step forward onto right foot turn ¼ pivot left, recover on left
5678Step forward on the right, turn ¼ pivot left, recover on left, step forward onto right foot turn ¼ pivot left, recover on left
Section 3: (17-24) Squish the bug! X 2
1&2Step forward on the right onto your toe, swivel heel out to the right and back in
3&4Step back on the right, step left next to right, step forward on the right
5&6Step forward on the left onto your toe, swivel heel out to the left and back in
7&8Step back on the left, step right next to left, step forward on left
Section 4: (25-32) ¼ turn Jazz box to RT, rocking chair
1234Step the right foot diagonally across in front of you, step back on the left while turning ¼ to the right, step right to right side, step left to right
5678Rock forward on the right, recover on the left, rock back on the right, recover on the left
Section 5: (33-40) Monterey turn, Step, Hitch, 2 X steps
12Point the right toe out to right side, turn a ¼ to the right while bringing the right foot back to left
34Point left toe out to left side and bring back beside right

Section 6: (41-48) Shuffles back X2, coaster step and 2 Steps

5&6Step back on the left, step right next to left, step forward on left
78Step forward on the right foot, Step forward on the left foot
REPEAT
The dance finishes on the last step of section 4 (final time around). That would leave you facing the 3:00 wall so I suggest that on count 6 as you recover, make a ¼ turn left with your body to face the front and rock your weight on to the right leg (count 7) and point your left toe out to left side on the 8th count.
ENJOY!
