Bending the knees slightly and lowering the body will look better when doing the twists in Counts 1-4, 9-12, and 33-36.

REPEAT
Option 1
Hop and twist your feet while in the air so you can land with the correct foot position on the twist counts, Counts 1-4, 9-12, and 33-36. Also, use arm movements from the original twist, which will resemble pulling a towel from side to side across your backside.
Use chest to shoulder height kicks on Counts 38 and 42.
For Counts 37-44 keep arms fairly rigid and straight down at your sides, or slightly forward, with the palms flat and parallel to the floor, with the fingers held straight. This is one of the early Charleston stylings.
Option 2
Starting position: Hands on hips, feet spread to shoulder width, body and head straight-back to cameras/audience
Starting time: Everyone holds until after slow intro sings: "Baby likes to rock it like a boogie-woogie choo-choo train, train, train, train;" and then wait 4 counts into the song's main rhythm.

Ending
After the last pattern is danced and finished with a stomp, you will have your back to the cameras/audience. Everyone will twist the upper body ½ turn to the right, the right arm stretches toward the camera/audience (keep it lower than your face or you will not be seen by camera/audience), the left arm extends behind you. (To make this more graceful, keep the right foot in place after the last stomp and leave only the left toe touching the floor allowing the heel to raise and bend the left knee to allow you to twist easily to the right.)
