static square
|
Like in a grand square heads and sides will be
distinguished (e.g. "heads face, ..."):
A) The addressed persons turn as told.
Then they take
-
3 steps backward, turn a quarter (90°) towards the center of the set,
-
next take in that direction 3 steps forward,
there do an additional pass thru,
turn a quarter (90°) towards the center of the set,
-
take in that direction 3 steps forward again,
do an additional "pass thru",
turn once more a quarter (90°) towards the center of the set,
-
and take in that direction 3 steps backward.
– Attention, in contrast to "grand square" there is no "reverse":
Here likewise will be a quarter (90°) towards the center of the set (i.e. towards the momentary partner).
-
Now the same sequence (except the final quarter turn) commences on the other side of the set:
they first take 3 steps backward, turn a quarter (90°) towards the center of the set,
-
next take in that direction 3 steps forward,
there do an additional pass thru,
turn a quarter (90°) towards the center of the set,
-
take in that direction 3 steps forward again,
do an additional "pass thru",
turn once more a quarter (90°) towards the center of the set,
-
and take in that direction 3 steps backward.
B) In the meantime the not-addressed dancers will perform items 3 to 6 two times in succession
(on either side of the set).
Notes: * The additional "pass thru" thus will be applied whenever it is possible and
corresponds to the momentary moving direction.
* Each combination of "pass thru" and subsequent quarter turn towards the center of the set
is to be performed in the sense of a slide thru.
But be aware: the directions of those turns (here: always towards the center) would agree only in case of having
normal pairs within the starting static square!
