Note: the final 16 counts is a repeat of the previous 16 counts. The second half of the dance is danced to the chorus which is a repeating sequence of 16, so that structure is mirrored in the dance. The only differences are that to begin the final 16, you will turn ¼ to the left; and secondly, you will be dancing this 16 facing the opposite wall as the previous 16.

Enjoy!
