Notes
1 Danced as written in the ISTD syllabus: Chassé 
to Right, RLR, cross LF behind RF in PP into Whisk, 
steps 2-3 of the Promenade Link.
2 Danced as written in the ISTD syllabus: 
Oversway, ending No. 6.
3 Exaggerated shaping is used as an entry to the 
Outside Swivel. This is a stylistic matter beyond the 
scope of the syllabus.
4 Note the differing timing and expression of the two 
Five Steps used in this routine.
