Sorry - to keep in phrasing with the song a couple of add-ons are required.......

TAG; When using 'Chariots Of Fire' a small 4 count tag is needed:

1-2	Step forward on Right, pivot 1/2 turn Left
3-4	Step forward on Right, pivot 1/2 turn Left
The tag is always done on the back wall - after walls 1, 3, and after 16 counts of wall 6

RESTART; During wall 6 dance up to counts 13-14 'Rock forward on Right, recover back on Left'
then instead of doing 'Right shuffle turning 1/2 Right' please do the following:
15	Turning 1/4 Right (to face back wall) step Right to Right side
16	Step Left beside Right taking weight
Then add on the 3rd tag and restart from beginning

The sequence should be;
1 wall then tag
2 walls then tag
2 walls plus 16 counts then tag
2 walls to finish
