Man: Left hand to lady's right hand.  You're already back on the right foot for beat 1.  The signal for a First Move is the right hand being held out at hip height, pointing towards the lady's left hip.

Woman: Step back on left foot

  

Men: Step in on the left foot to bring feet together, bringing the lady in to your right side, so that you stand hip to hip with your right hand now resting on the lady's left hip.

Women: Step forward on right foot in to man's right side & stop so that your feet are in a line and you are pointing in opposite directions.

(Men: your left hand is a little higher than waist high, and your grip is open and loose).

  

Men: Take your left hand down and to the right, to turn the lady 180 degrees clockwise on the spot.  As you do this take a small step back on the outside foot.  Your hand should now be down at waist height.

Women: Turn 180 degrees clockwise on the spot, and take a small step back on the outside foot.

(You should both be facing in the same direction now).

 

Men: Bring your feet together, and guide the lady in front of you so that you are standing face to face, with your left hand up at head height, palm to palm, elbow to elbow.

Women: Step in front of the man with your left foot and go palm to palm with him.

Men: Push up over the lady's head to spin her.

Women: Push-off against the man's hand and spin 360 degrees clockwise on the spot.

Men: Bring your hand down and step back on the right foot.

Women: Complete the spin and step back on the right foot.

Men: Step in for a standard return, bring your left hand up over the lady's head to spin her on the spot.

Women: Step in and spin 360 degrees anti-clockwise on the spot.

Men: Step back on the right foot, holding on to the lady's right hand.

Women: Come out of the spin, and step back on the left foot ready for the next move.
