Optional Ending:

You will dance 10 complete walls.  You will start the 11th repetition facing the back wall.  Do the first 16 counts, but instead

of doing the ¾ turn on count 16, just do ¼ turn (or 1¼ for the adventurous!!) to face the front wall. Then lift both hands up to head height , turning both palms outwards with the fingers spread & pointing in towards your face as the music ends with “look at yourself”.  Feel free to make this dance as funky as you like!!
