BOX: Each dancer in the BELLE position steps forward, extends a right
hand to the opposite dancer, pulls by the right, and lets go when
passing right shoulders. The dancer from a BEAU position steps forward
and to the right, turns left to face the same direction as the
on-coming dancer. The dancer from the BEAU position extends the left

dancer, and they do a COURTESY TURN. The dancers end up in an IN-FACING
BOX.

NOTE: FLUTTERWHEEL is counterpart to a LADIES CHAIN
because MEN CHAIN is not a valid call.
IN-FACING

right arm of the on-coming dancer, and turns clockwise. As each of
these center dancers turns adjacent to the opposite dancer in a
BEAUposition, that dancer reaches out with the free left hand (palm
down) and takes the left hand (palm up) of the opposite dancer. The two
dancers walk clockwise around the center to the center dancers starting
BELLE position. The center dancers release right forearms, and the two
couples turn to face the center of the BOX. The dancers end up in an
IN-FACING BOX.

CALLER’S NOTE:
The 29 calls in Lessons 2, 3, 4 and 5 can be done in any sequence, as
long as they can be executed. The worst that can happen is that 1) the
LADY dancer does not end up paired with the original MAN
dancer
and 2) the COUPLE is not at HOME position. From any BOX position, the
calls SWING YOUR ORIGINAL PARTNER and PROMENADE HOME, will resolve the
set, that is, square the set.
