Intro 16 cts with 2 easy to spot restarts
Start on lyrics and shimmy shoulders just before start from count 12.
Give this “Stroll” a little bounce to the body just like they did back in the 1950’s.
In my version I have added some Elvis moves for a bit of 50’s fun and options for a non-Elvis style version

1-4Step R to side, Step L together, Step R to side, Touch L next to right
5-8Step L to side, Step R together, Step L to side, Touch R next to left

7&8Drop L heel & Bend R knee, Drop R heel, Bend R knee again

Slow Coaster, L Toe Strut, R Knee Pop, Hold (pose like Elvis with/without 1 shoulder shimmy)

4-5Step fwd on L Toe, Drop L heel & Bend R knee fwd as you lift R Heel up
6-8Hold (still with R knee fwd/heel off floor) with optional shimmy of 1 shoulder for these 3 cts

Start again
Ending: (2m 3s) it repeats the line “I GOTTA KNOW” so just dance the last 8cts (Toe Struts & shimmy x 3 more times (until the music fades)
Restart: easy to spot after ct 32 during wall 3 (1m 5s) & ct 32 during wall 5 (1m 42s), as the music of those 2 verses prior to restart goes up a key.
Abbreviations: R = Right, L = Left, Fwd = Forward, Diag = Diagonal, Tog = Together
I hope you have fun, so what are you waiting for? Let’s Rock & Stroll everyone!
