The first 16 counts are similar to a Fwd-Fwd-Lock-Hold ..and can be used – though the original styling will disappear.
As the first 16 counts travels, an adaptation has been created by Candy Tan (S’pore) for smaller dance areas (see video).
Always remember - 'The beat may reach your feet - but the rhythm should electrify your soul'.
