Teach starting from improper. Instruct dancers to identify their new neighbors 1 place ahead of them before the beginning of B2. It can also help to demo the "turn to a clover" move.
Wait out improper on the ends.
The idea of a zig zag turning into a clover was inspired by a dance Andy Buck was tinkering with at Breaking Up Thanksgiving 2023.
