16 count dance. Correct counts: 1 2 3&4 5 6 7&8 1&2 3&4 5 6 7 8 Pay attention to the bass line.

That is all a matter of interpretation, Tom. This is an Absolute Beginner dance which should never have "&" counts.

Take a look at the original sheet music for the timing. It is in 4/4 meter and the strong beats are on 1 and 3 in each 4 beat measure.

Experiment with either count, see which works better for your group. Priority on simple and teaching the use of "hold"? Then go with the holds. Priority on teaching the use of "and"? Then go with the ands.
If the group you are leading has many who have never done dance before, then going with the "holds" would be easier to grasp.
