Right hands tip and here ice go} Promenade!

2.  a) First couple divide, and each takes four steps back
from the other, then advancing together, take the dance position and swing, b) Then in promenade position (side by side, lady on the right, holding hands with arms crossed in front) they march around the outside of the square and passing their own place advance to the second couple.
c) The first and second couples pass through each other, the ladies passing between the opposite couple (see page 127 for full directions.) Each couple turns left about and passes back through the other.
Right and left with the couple you meet.
