Flip, Step Under (3 counts ; 6 musical beats)

Introduction

Can use a Neckbreak signal, to show that the man is going to take hold of the lady's shoulder. Don't need to make an arch until the turn takes place.

Steps

1: (Step back)

The lady faces south directly in front of the man, who faces north.

The man holds the lady's right hand in his left hand.

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.

2: (Step in)

The lady faces south stepped away in front of and slightly on the right of the man, who faces north.

The man holds the lady's right hand in his left hand.

The man leads the lady to move forwards — by raising his left hand (and the lady's right hand) from waist height to above head height keeping the elbow high so that the arms form an arch similar to an inverted “V” — as he moves forwards slightly to the left of the lady's line, so that the lady will come into his right side and places his right hand on the lady's left shoulder.

3: ()

The lady faces south in front of and slightly on the right of the man, who faces north.

The man holds the lady's right hand in his left hand — the man holds the lady's left shoulder with his right hand.

The man leads the lady to turn 180^o clockwise (with weight on her right leg) under his left hand (and the lady's right hand) and move forwards under his left hand — by releasing her left shoulder after pulling it slightly with his right hand — as he turns 180^o anticlockwise (with weight on her left leg) under his left hand (and the lady's right hand) and then moves forwards under the raised arms lowers his left hand (and the lady's right hand) to waist height.

4: (Finish)

The lady faces north stepped away directly in front of the man, who faces south.

The man holds the lady's right hand in his left hand.
