[25~32]: ¼ STEP TOUCHES X 2, R-L TURNING SLIDE STEPS, STEP BEHIND
1, 2¼ turn left stepping out right onto R [9:00] (1); touch L next to R (2);

[**TAG/ RESTART HERE AFTER 32 COUNTS OF PHRASE 5**]
[33~40]: TOE-HEEL TOGETHER TWISTS R, R SLOW ½ CHASE TURN, HOLD
1, 2with both feet, rotate toes to the right (1); rotate both heels to the right (2)*
3, 4with both feet, rotate toes to the right (3); rotate both heels to the right, then weight L (4)*
5,6,7-8R step forward (5); ½ turn left onto L [6:00] (6); R step forward (7); hold (8)
*Arm/ body styling: with arms bent at the elbows/ hands by your shoulders, shift them left with toes right, right with heels, and repeat.
You can style by also starting upright, then bending slightly as you move right, lowering your arms as well.

1,2,3,4L step forward (1); ½ turn right onto R [12:00] (2); ¼ turn right, back onto L (3); ¼ turn right out onto R [6:00] (4);
5, 6L step across R (5); R sweep counter-clockwise across L (weight remains on L) (6);
7, 8R step across left in prep position (7); make ¼ turn right stepping back onto L, and continue rotating ¾ turn right to the back/ new wall keeping weight on L (you will then cross R over L for count 1) [6:00] (8)
(BEGIN AGAIN, and most certainly DWYF!)
**TAG/ RESTART: rock out to R for 1-2, recover weight onto L for 3-4, with optional hand/arm movement: making a ‘heart’ with your hands, circle them from bottom counter-clockwise in a circle in front of you or get creative (there is no music, only a soft spoken count of 4. Then RESTART.
