Steps

1: (Step back)

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

2: ()

The man leads the lady to move forwards past his right side and turn 180^o anticlockwise (with weight on her left leg) under his right hand (and the lady's left hand) — by bringing his right hand (and the lady's left hand) slightly below waist height then raising his right hand (and the lady's left hand) from waist height to above the lady's head in an over-arm “bowling” motion — as he moves forwards.

3: (Step past)

The man leads the lady to finish the turn (placing weight onto her right foot as a brake and then stepping back on her left leg) and move backwards — by lowering his left hand (and the lady's left hand) to waist height — as he moves forwards-right and offers his left hand behind his back.

4: ()

The man leads the lady to move forwards-left to come up to his left side — by releasing her left hand after pulling it slightly with his right hand and pulling her right hand slightly with his left hand (once the lady has taken hold of his left hand in her right hand) bringing his right hand (and the lady's right hand) to above head height in an arch — as he moves backwards.

5: (Step past)
