LEAD RIGHT

Starting formation - couple. Directed couple(s) take a step forward, and as a unit turn to the right 90 degrees and move forward.

CIRCLE TO A LINE

Starting formation - facing couples. Couples circle left one half (180 degrees). The lead dancer in the couple who started on the inside (man's position) releases the left handhold, but retains the handhold of the dancer on his right to become the left end dancer of the line. The released dancer moves forward under the raised arm arch formed by that dancer and the adjacent dancer to become the right end dancer in the line.

WHEEL AROUND

Starting formation - couple. The couple, working as a unit, turns around (180 degrees). The left hand dancer backs up while the right hand dancer moves forward. The pivot point is the handhold between the two dancers.

STAR PROMENADE

Starting formation - star, promenade. Directed dancers form a star and place the other arm around the waist of another directed dancer. Turn the star and promenade the distance specified.

GENTS OR LADIES BACKTRACK

Starting formation - single dancer. The dancer does a U turn back by stepping out and turning away from partner or the center of the set.
