Mirrored inside pivot turn
Note that there are no triple steps in this pattern.
Start in an [open] position. On 1 and 2 step backwards towards 6:00. On 3 turn 180 degrees such that you are facing 6:00 and the follower is facing 12:00. On 3 you will do this by bringing your left hand all the way towards 3:00 and immediately releasing your hand. You should be back-to-back and your shoulder blades could be touching each other but they do not necessarily have to. On 3 and 4 your weight should be on your left leg as you are leaning towards the left. On 5 and 6 you should lean towards the right and change your weight into your right leg. On 7 you should turn clockwise by stepping on your left leg so your body points at 10 o’clock. On 8 turn slightly clockwise by stepping on your right leg while offering your left hand such that you end in an [open] position.
Variations:
On 3 instead of releasing your left hand you may choose to keep it connected and continue the rest of the pattern while holding hands. This easier to follow.
This pattern can be done from a [parallel] position while holding both hands throughout the entire rotation.
