Description:<\/span>
\n    1-8   The dance begins with the active couples facing down the hall (away from the caller) and the inactive couples facing up the hall. Each group of four facing dancers Circle to the Left for 8 steps.
\n  9-16   Same four dancers Circle Right back to their original facing positions.
\n17-24   Same four dancers make a Right-hand Star and turn it for 8 beats.
\n25-32   Same four turn around and Star Left back to their original position facing up or down the set. <\/p>\n

33-40   Facing dancers Dosado (pass right shoulders, slide back-to-back, then back up passing left shoulders to end facing again).
\n41-48   Same two dancers Swing ending with the lady on the right side of the gent and all facing down the hall (away from the caller).
\n49-56   The line of four walks down the set 6 short steps, then dancers turn alone on beats 7 and 8 to face back up the hall.
\n57-64   The line walks up the hall in 4 big steps then the Center two dancers raise their joined hands to make an arch in the center. The dancers on the end of the line walk forward and around under the arch releasing handholds and then move forward to face a new couple. <\/p>\n

Progression:<\/span> When a couple has no one to dance with they are neutral for one sequence. During this time they turn around as a couple (or individually if dancing as a Proper Duple) and change their role — at the top Inactives become Active, at the bottom Actives become Inactive.<\/p>\n

Choreography by:<\/span> Bob Dalsemer
\nSource:<\/span> Used by Eldon Cooper at NTOT dance in Nova Scotia about 2008. Also as seen on You-Tube at a 2011 youth dance.<\/p>\n
