42. WHEEL AND DEAL FAMILY

Starting formation - line(s) of four facing in the same direction or a two-faced line.
(a) WHEEL AND DEAL ( from a line of four )
The left hand couple only takes a step forward. The couples wheel (180) toward the center of the line with the center dancer of each couple acting as the pivot point about which the couples turn. The couple that started on the right half of the line wheels in front of the other couple. Both couples end facing the same direction with the original left hand couple standing behind the original right hand couple.
(b) WHEEL AND DEAL ( from a two-faced line )
: Each couple steps straight ahead one step. Each couple then wheels (180) toward the center of the line with the center dancer of each couple acting as the pivot point about which the couples turn. Couples end facing each other.
Styling: Use couple handholds. Inside dancers serve as the pivot point and should exert slight pressure to assist as in any wheel around movement.
Timing: 4 steps.

43. DOUBLE PASS THRU
Starting formation - double pass thru. Dancers move forward, passing right shoulders with two other dancers to finish facing away from the center of the set in a completed double pass thru formation.
Styling: Same as in pass thru. Dancer leads slightly with right shoulder and therefore the lady could use her right hand to work her skirt by putting it in front of her as she passes.
Timing: 4 steps.

44. FIRST COUPLE GO LEFT/RIGHT,
    NEXT COUPLE GO RIGHT/LEFT
Starting formation - completed double pass thru. A person in front of you, or a couple (leader) turns 180 degrees towards a designated direction, right or left, drawing a circle outside and a person behind you, or a couple (trailer) also turns 180 degrees towards a designated direction ( left or right ), waiting for the next instruction.

45. ZOOM
Starting formation - starting and completed double pass thru, two-faced lines, single file promenade, columns, box circulate and promenade. From one couple following another, each dancer in the lead couple separates away from his partner and walks around a full circle (360) to end in the position of the dancer who was directly behind him. Meanwhile, each trailing dancer steps directly forward into the vacated position of the lead dancer. Every dancer ends facing in the same direction he started. From a setup where one dancer is following another, the lead dancer walks away from the center of the square and around in a full circle (360) to the position of the dancer who was directly behind him. Meanwhile, the trailing dancer steps directly forward into the position vacated by the lead dancer.
Styling: Lead dancers hold arms in natural dance position. Ladies skirt work optional. Trailing dancers use couple handhold. In zoom it is important that lead dancers initiate the roll out movement with a slight forward motion to allow sufficient room for trailing dancers to step through comfortably.
Timing: 4 steps.

46. FLUTTER WHEEL FAMILY
Starting formation - facing couples.
(a) FLUTTER WHEEL
The right hand dancers go in to the center and turn by the right forearm. As they move adjacent to the opposite dancer, they reach out with the free (left) hand and, taking the right hand of the opposite dancer, each continues on around to the original right hand dancer's starting position, releasing arms in the center and turning as a couple to face the center.
(b) REVERSE FLUTTER WHEEL
Generally the same as flutterwheel except that the two left-hand dancers start with a left forearm turn and pick up the opposite dancers to return to their (the left hand dancer's) starting position.
Styling: Dancers turning in the center should remember the principle of the forearm turn (see Basics #8 arm turn). The dancer being picked up can enhance the movement by anticipating the approach of the opposite dancer and step beside that person, taking normal couple handhold. If girls are on the outside, skirt work with the free hand is desirable.
Timing: From a static square (SS), head or side ladies, 8 steps. All four ladies, 12 steps.

47. SWEEP A QUARTER

(Flutter Wheel)
&
Sweep a 1/4
Starting formation - facing couples in a circling movement (right or left). Dancers continue the circling movement one quarter (90) in the direction of their body flow.
Styling: All dancers use couple handholds. Couples working together should smoothly disengage previous handhold and blend into the sweeping basic.
Timing: 2 couples, 2 steps; all 4 couples, 4 steps.
