Phrasing Note: We loved the song but the phrasing made it a challenge to choreograph to. Because the song starts immediately with no intro you need to start the dance the first time through on count 9. Dance 3 walls as written and then you will have 3 walls with restarts and 1 with a hold . These will come on the front wall, back wall, left side wall and front wall.
On the 4th wall (9 o’clock): dance the first 28 counts and restart the dance (you will be facing 12 o’clock)
On the 5th wall (12 o’clock): dance the first 24 counts (the music is all instrumental for this wall) and restart the dance (you will be facing 6 o’clock)
On the 6th wall (6 o’clock) dance the first 24 counts (you will be facing 12 o’clock). There is a pause in the song so HOLD for 2 counts and then continue with the final 8 counts of the dance to bring you to 9 o’clock wall
On the 7th wall (9 o’clock): dance the first 28 counts and restart the dance (you will be facing 12 o’clock)
Ending: 9th wall (3 o’clock): dance the first 5 counts bringing yourself to the front wall and hold.
In short form:
*1st wall – Start from count 9
