3: ()

The man leads the lady to move forwards-left and rotate 360^o clockwise (with weight on her right leg) to back him — by releasing her right hand after pushing it slightly with his left hand and keeping his right hand at waist height on his right side, allowing his right hand grip to swivel so that the lady can rotate freely.

5: ()

The man leads the lady to move right — by pulling her right hand slightly with his left hand and bringing his left hand (and the lady's right hand) across to his left waist — as he moves right and brings his right hand (and the lady's left hand) to his right waist— the man's palms will typically face backwards.

6: ()

Either one, or both partners, can wiggle up and down back to back.

7: ()

The man leads the lady to move backwards-left and spin 360^o clockwise (with weight on her right leg) — by releasing her left hand after pulling it slightly with his right hand — as he moves backwards.

8: (Catch, and step back)

The man typically catches the lady's hands in a double handhold, or catches the lady's right hand in either his left or right hand.
