righty right-side outside chain turn
·1 min
I think Damon calls it a Dallas turn.
- Start in a righty position.
- On 1 step back at 6:00 with the left foot.
- On 2 step back at 6:00 with the right foot such that you face 3:00 while raising your right hand to the follower’s face level, making sure your right hand is aligned with the follower’s right-shoulder. Make sure to pull the follower back on steps 1 and 2, not just 1.
- On 2.5 give the follower a slight right prep (like 1.5 inches).
- On 3&4 lead an outside turn while doing regular right-side pass footwork. This pattern will not work well if you are not facing 3:00 by 3 and allow the follower to have the full slot.
- On 5&6 do an anchor step. You should end in a righty position.
Next pattern suggestion:
- head drape into starter position
