"Somebody Slap Me" will only have you repeat the first 48 steps once more...your practice music or other songs you choose to use will vary in song length and thus will vary in the number of sequences you dance. Don't let the number of steps intimidate you...the last 32 are just fun movements, with little memory challenge!!!!
