If you repeat the full Hully Gully step again, you’ll be making another right turn. Keep repeating until end of record. That learned, try out some impersonations —like the Marilyn Monroe walk, Frankenstein, Groucho Marx or the Lone Ranger (see cover page).Participants have a great deal of fun, too, using their own-ingenuity in depicting characters in the way they walk-walk. They may also be called upon just to “bug”-—doing anything original they wish; not interpreting a character, but perhaps another dance—like the Twist or Rhumba.Learn the basic steps—and give it a whirl at your next party.2ND PARTTURNFORWARDPUSHFORWARDPOSHFORWARD
