Notes:
*1* The original choreography had 4 right heel taps to the right
diagonal, followed by four left heel taps to the left diagonal.
Other variations for counts 1-8 (2nd and 3rd variations are in the
original choreography):
 * Jump, cross, full turn, jump, cross, full turn:
  1-2 Jump both feet out to shoulder width,
      jump & cross right over left,
  3-4 Make a full left turn,
  5-8 Repeat 1-4, either in the same or opposite direction

 * Jump, cross, 1/2 turn, jump, cross, 1/2 turn:
  1-2 Jump both feet out to shoulder width,
      jump & cross right over left,
  3-4 Make 1/2 unwind turn left,
  5-8 Repeat 1-4, either in the same or opposite direction

 * Syncopated Steps/Pretzels:
  1&2 Cross right over left, step left to left side (on &),
      touch right heel forward,
 &3&4 Step down on right (on &), cross left over right,
      step right to right side (on &), touch left heel forward,
 &5&6 Step down on left (on &), cross right over left,
      step left to left side (on &), touch right heel forward,
 &7&8 Step down on right (on &), cross left over right,
      step right to right side (on &), touch left heel forward,

*2* Counts 13-20 are the "Tush Push" part, style them as you like.
Ideally all the weight is on the foot on which you are doing the hip
bump. Counts 17-20 were originally choreographed as hip grinds to the
right.
*3* An alternative ending (actually the original choreography) has:
  33&34 Shuffle forward (L,R,L),
  35-36 Step RIGHT forward, make 1/2 pivot turn LEFT & step onto LEFT,
  37-38 Step RIGHT forward, make 1/4 turn LEFT (weight on LEFT),
  39-40 Stomp RIGHT beside LEFT, clap.
