[1] A left shoulder do-si-do.
[2] Face away from corner, give right hand to current partner to start the grand right and left.
[3] This is where lost couples can come in, hopefully in a completely different section of the room where they may have more experienced same-sex shadows in front of them..

A forgiving way to teach grand right and left in circle mixer form. I expect someone else has already written this dance.
