Head drape into starter

·1 min

Start in a [handshake] position. Same as a [head drape] up to step 2. For the handwork, on 3&4, rather than sliding your right arm down the follower’s left arm, you will slide your right hand under the follower’s left armpit to go into a [closed] position; curl your wrist and fingers before you slide your right hand under the armpit and smoothly twist your wrist from 9:00 to 6:00 to 3:00 like drawing the letter U with your wrist as you slide under the armpit; at the same time on 3&4, grab the follower’s right hand with your left hand as if going in an [open] position.

For the footwork, on 4, you will step towards 12:00 with your left toes pointing at 10:30. On 5&6 do an anchor step; end facing 9:00 with your body and toes; be in a [starter] position.
