Tip for teaching the last 4 counts:  as the beat is not fast, call the steps in single counts as 1-8 -- dancers seems to find it easier to learn them the steps this way.

Alternatively -- Easier option:
ROCK STEP, TURNING COASTER STEP
5&6Rock right to right side, recover on left, step right beside left (weight on right)
7&8Crossing left behind right step left back making ¼ turn left, step right beside left, step left forward

Restart for ‘One Bad Day’ only:
On wall 3 facing 6 o’clock, dance the first eight count s, then :
1&2&Touch right toe forward bumping right hip forward, back, forward, back (weight on left)
Start again at the beginning!  No more restarts.

Enjoy!
