Hand movements-After the first four walls: |

| | fingers closed |

Music: The recommended music is track 2 from the CD single of "Lord Of The Dance". |
Alternatively use track 1 from the full CD, but start the dance half way through when the full |
orchestra starts up. Alternatively use the "bonus " track 16, but this has the taps on it. |
