From one couple
following another, each dancer in the lead couple separates away from
his partner and walks around a full circle (360。) to end in the position
of the dancer who was directly behind him. Meanwhile, each trailing
dancer steps directly forward into the vacated position of the lead
dancer. Every dancer ends facing in the same direction he started. From
a setup where one dancer is following another, the lead dancer walks
away from the center of the square and around in a full circle (360。) to
the position of the dancer who was directly behind him. Meanwhile, the
trailing dancer steps directly forward into the position vacated by the
lead dancer. |
