Title: Quarter Turn to Right
Level: Pre-Bronze (ISTD), (IDTA)
Timing: (SQQS)
Rotation: 1/4 to Right
Notes
The Quarter Turn to Right was formerly part of a combination called
Quarter Turns, where it was formed the first half of a tandem with the
Quarter Turn to Left (Heel Pivot). In the most recent editions of both 
the Ballroom Technique and The Quickstep and Basic Principles, the 
Quarter Turns have been split in two, presumably to facilitate the more
popular combination of Quarter Turn to Right and Progressive Chassé.

Disambiguation: Spotting the difference between the Quarter Turn to Right, 
the Tipple Chassé to Left, and 1-4 Natural Turn can be tricky. Click here for
our handy field guide.
