If you want the dance to fit the breaks in the music, you will need to make slight variations in the steps. Each verse ends with a break on the last 8 counts of the dance (counts 49-56) with Shania talking. To hit the break replace steps 49-56 with:

2nd time she says "okay, so you're Brad Pitt" (facing left side wall)
3rd time she says "okay so you've got a car" (facing right side wall)
Then restart the dance from the beginning right after she says the words "That Don't". You will start on the word "impress"
During the choruses there is another break you may want to hit which comes right after the touch turn left on counts 37-40. You would normally do the right cross rock & right coaster step back at this point, but you can substitute:
