Start in short wavy lines with your opposite in your right hand
| A1 | 8 | balance & Rory O'More right
|
| 8 | balance & Rory O'More left

| |
| B2 | 8 | circle right 6 places (open from circle 3 into circle 6, circle to return home)
|
| 8 | zig right zag left ⁋

The B1 left gyre into a circle right 3 is the equivalent of a two-person gyre into a swing. However, it may be taught as a "single file circle" with the lefthand dancer in the line of three turning back to start.
