5 & 6 &Touch left toe back (5), make ½ turn left transferring weight onto both feet (&) shimmy both shoulders – keep head looking to front wall (6&) 9.00
7 – 8“Butt roll” – to create this action: bend both knees as if sitting down, lift ‘tail bone’ so push butt back, straighten knees butt returns to place – this is all done in 1 count so you will do it twice for counts 7 – 8 9.00
