Note on footwork for figure 1: For
both partners, the footwork for the Lunge (S) should be Heel;
construction and footwork of the apart turn itself consists of
a pivot (Q-THT,) followed by a twinkle action danced with three
Quicks; the footwork for this and all twinkle actions danced
from forward movements should be HT-T-TH. The moving foot should
brush the standing foot on the T step. |
