6Recover weight onto R

4,5,6Step R back, rock L back, recover fwd onto R (7:30)

**RESTARTS: During the 4th sequence & the 7th sequence, complete the first six counts and restart the dance.
Both restarts will occur facing 7:30. There could have been another possible restart but I made the decision to phrase the dance as outlined above. You’re Welcome.

ENDING: Dance up to count 20 and add a further ¼ turn L to 12:00 as you step L to L side (21), cross R over L (22) -Ta-Da!
