Left Side Starter Inside Chain Turn Into Open Position

Left-side starter inside chain turn into open position #

Whenever you are in a [closed] or [starter] position, your first two steps are half the length, so the [left] prep for the inside chain turn will happen on 2 rather than between 1 and 2. [^2]

Start in a [starter] position. Steps 1, 2, and 3& are done while facing 9 o’clock. Step 1 is to 6 o’clock. Step 2 is to 6 o’clock, but you must cross your right leg behind your left leg. Step 3 in the 3& is a back towards 3 o’clock so that your left foot goes backwards more so than where the right foot is standing. It looks better than doing the 3& in place. Step & in the 3& is done almost in place because there is very little travel towards 6 o’clock. Step 4 is diagonal towards 7:30 o’clock. Steps 5&6 are an anchor step. You should end in an [open] position.
