It begins with right hands touching with the original opposite couple as they “Star Right Half” to walk by each other, then everyone reaches left hands out toward the next couple coming toward them around the big circle as they “Star Left Half” to move by each other.  Continue on to the third couple with right hands out to “Star Right Half” and finally pass the fourth couple with left hands out to Star Left Half.  Continue to the fifth couple to begin the dance again.

Usage:  This is a wonderful “wind in the face” dance, but it always takes some careful explanation and a bit of practice.  It is not recommended for use at a typical beginner party dance.
