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

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.

place the other arm around the waist of another directed dancer. Turn
the star and promenade the distance specified.
