Backpass (3 counts ; 6 musical beats) : Brief Description

The Backpass is similar to a Change Of Places or Shoulder Slide, so that the handhold is transferred near the man's right hip.

Steps

1: (Step back)

The man leads the lady to move backwards — by pushing her right hand slightly with his right hand — as he moves backwards-left off the lady's line, leaving it free for her to step forwards.

2: (Step in)

The man leads the lady to move forwards — by pulling her right hand slightly with his right hand — as he moves forwards slightly to the left of the lady's line, so that the lady comes slightly past his right side, as he brings the lady's right hand down to his right hip.

3: (Swap hands, and step past)

The man leads the lady to move forwards-right and rotate 180o clockwise (with weight on her right leg) — by swapping the lady's right hand from his left hand into his right hand behind his back — as he moves forwards and rotates 180o anticlockwise (with weight on his left leg).

4: (Finish)
