Begin again!

Note: Intro is pretty long, so you could choose to start earlier after 64 counts with the heavy beat (approx. at 0.42 secs) and then at the end of that first wall, you will have to add a 4 count  – TAG

 STEP, PIVOT 1/2, TOUCH, HOLD

1-2   Step forward on R, pivot 1/2 turn left on L

3-4   Touch R next to L, hold

 

This will bring you back at the front wall again. This way, the dancers who chose to start 64 counts before the lyrics will be on the same wall, with the dancers who only start on the lyrics.
