5return weight back to R
6L step to L side (still facing 7:00)
[31~36]: HESITATION TWINKLE x2 (R/L), OR VARIATION OF*
1R step across L

3hold
4L step across R
5R touch to R side, making slight rotation L

1R step forward (toward 7:00)
2L step back ½ R (toward 7:00, face 1:00)

4L step forward
5continue movement slightly forward, weight L. Arms can develop, R arm forward, L back.
6weight and hold L, w/ bent L knee, prepare to step/push back R
(BEGIN AGAIN, and most certainly Dance What You Feel!)
** Restart occurs after 36 counts (after 6 sets of 6) of the 6th phrase.
It will help to change the last 3 counts (34-36) to reset for the beginning of the 7th phrase.
Easiest option: after the L check step (28-30), do a R twinkle (31-33), and a L check forward (34-36)
same as the last 3 counts of the complete phrase (46-48).
Weight will need to be on your left to start/restart the dance, consider always starting your movement
on the last 4-6 counts, as you teach, learn, and practice this choreography.
Choreographer’s Note: This step description is intended to be a guideline, for use along with a
physical teach and/or video instruction.
