HIP BUMPS, TAP STEPS, KICK BALL CHANGE
1-2Step side left and bump hip left, step side right and bump hip right
3-4Step side left and bump hip left, tap right together
5-6Step side right, tap left together
7&8Left kick ball change (kick left, step on ball of left, step in place right)
PIVOT TURN, RONDE, BACK, SIDE, CROSS
1-2Forward left, turning ½ turn to the right and step on right
3-4Step forward left, while making a ½ turn right and ronde right foot around - like a sweep low but above the ground
5-6Cross behind stepping on right, step side left
7-8Cross in front right, tap side left
SIDE TAPS, FLICK, PIVOT TURN, HAND CLAPS
&1Bring left together, tap right to side
&2Step right together, tap left to side
3-4Bring left together while flicking right (bring right leg up bent in attitude position) and turning ¼ turn left (take 2 full counts with that move)
5-6Step forward right, pivot ½ turn to left and step left
7&8Step forward right while turning ½ turn left, hold and clap hands twice (&8)
LOCK STEP STOMPS, PIVOT TURN
Technically this is too hard to actually count if you hit the accents in the music, but I can give you a rhythm that will work
1&2Step forward left, lock right behind, forward left
&3Lock right behind, forward left
&4Lock right behind, forward left
7-8Step forward right, turn ½ turn left and point left foot forward
Trust me the counts do work. The counts are closest to 1, &3, &5, &6, 7,8 if that helps. But using a step count knowing that while counting 1, &2, &3, &4 you are actually using up 6 beats works for teaching.
It will be more fun to accent the music by making these heavy steps or stomps
If you dance it to other music, the counts can be 1,2,3,4,5, pivot left on right (6-7), point left and hold (8)
REPEAT
RESTART
On wall 6, restart after count 8 of the dance. Do the dance 5 more times (you will pass by the chorus and do it one more time during a different sounding piece facing 6:00 wall). during the last of the 5 times there is a big break on 7-8 in the music. that tells you the 4 count tag is coming
1-2Sway left
3-4Sway right
Start from the beginning
SPICE MOVES
These are variations in the dance to "spice" up the dance. Doing any or all of these moves will put it in an advanced category
