Dance
Bar 1 to 4: Outside feet begin, one waltz step to each beat.(1st step bigger than the other two, the latter nearly in position) First the inner arms are swung forward, then backward, and once more forward and backward. Automatically the body of the dancers sways slightly to the right and left with this movement.
Bar 4: At the 4th waltz step, while the arms are swinging backward, the dancers turn inward by 180° and drop their hands at the end of the bar.
Bar 5: Simultaneously the new inner hands are taken.
Bar 5 to 8: Waltz steps backwards, beginning with inner feet. The dancers continue moving in ballroom direction. The inner arms swing forward, backward, forward and backward again. At the 4th step the partners turn to each other and take ballroom hold.
