(Music can be faded at 3:20) – You can also do this dance to other songs!

Variations: Play around with counts 5-8 by doing variations of your own!
For example: You can do 4 quick heel switches:
Touch R heel forward (5); Step R together (&); Touch L heel forward (6); Step L together (&)
Touch R heel forward (7); Step R together (&); Touch L heel forward (8); Step L together (&)
BEGIN AGAIN! ENJOY!
Contra: Make lines facing, standing windows to start. Since this is a 4 wall dance, you will be interacting with the people in the line in front of you and behind you, so it works better with at least 4 lines. The people on the front row, back row and ends of the lines will occasionally have no partner but it still works! Have fun!
1-8As you kick on count 4, touch hands with the people on either side of you (if possible)
9-16Walk around the person to your right in the line facing you ending back at home (you can touch R hands as you walk around if you’d like)
17-24Theses counts are done at home
25-32Once you complete these 8 counts, you are still at home but facing a side wall.
Your new “partner” is now a different person to your right front diagonal and so forth on each wall.
