From backing D.C. after a Spin Turn:—(4) 1/4 on Corte and no turn on 4, 5, 6. These are the most important alignments. Another good one is an underturned Spin (or an Impetus) to back D.C. against the L.0.D. and then make a 1/2 turn on the Corte to back diag. to wall. Follow with a Back Lock, or for Associates, follow with 4, 5, 6 of Natural Turn making a 1/4 turn to R. to face D.C.
Q23. Give the Footwork ofthe Corte as Man.
A23. 1, TH; 2, H. (L.F.) then Toes both feet; 3, TH. (RF); 4, T.H.; 5, T._;, 6, TH.
Q24. Would the Footwork be the same ifyou turned on Ball of R.F.?
A24. No. First 2 steps would be: 1, T.H.T.; 2, Toes (Both feet).
Q25. When the Man turns on Ball of RF. is the rise earlier or later?
A25. Theoretically the same, but Man will tend to rise a little earlier.
Q26. What is the technical name for steps 2 and 3 of the Corte (Man)?
A26. A Hesitation. (Not a Toe Pivot or Heel Pivot.)
Q27. What is the technical name for the last 3 steps of a Hes-itation Change as Man?
A27. A Heel Pull.
Q28. Is the Footwork exactly the same as the Heel Pull in Foxtrot?-
A28. The action of Pulling the 5th step back is the same, but as the LP. brushes to R.F. the
Footwork is “LE. of T. (L.F.)” while in the Foxtrot it is “LE. of foot”
Q29. Why is this?
A29. Theory is that the L. knee tends to relax on the one beat hesitation of the Hesitation Change and this brings the L. heel slightly off the floor.
Q30. Is the position of the Sth step of the Hesitation Change (Lady) the same as the 5th step of the Natural Turn?
A30. No. The 5th step of the Hesitation Change is across the L.0.D.. having made 3/8 of a turn between 4 and 5.
Q31. What causes this difference?
A31. The action of the Man’s Pull Step brings the Lady across the L.0.D. on 5.
Q32. Dance as Lady a Hesitation Change and then. as soon as normally possible. into a. Reverse Corte.
A32. This is easy, but many candidates fail by trying. to go straight into a Corte before dancing 1, 2. 3 of a Reverse Turn.
Q33. On which beat does a Man’s weight change on the last part of a Hesitation Change?-
A33. On the 5th beat is normal reply. Some dancers change it later.
Q34. What is the maximum amount .of turn made on a Natural. Spin Turn?
A34. 1 1/4 turns.
Q35. Give the Foot Positions on 4, 5, 6 of a Spin Turn (Man).
A35. 4, LP. back; 5. R.F. forward in C.B.M.P.; 6. LE to side and slightly back.
Q36. Give the Footwork on 4, 5, 6 as Man—then. Lady.
A36. Man: 4, T.H.T.; 5, H.T.; 6. TH. Lady 4, H.T.; 5. T.; 6. TH.
Q37. Give more detail of Lady’s Footwork on 4. 5. 6.
A37. R.F. moves forward on Ball, then Heel, then flat. She will turn on Ball of RF. with Heel
slightly off the floor while the LP. is placed back and leftwards with the Ball of foot on the floor. She will rise higher to Toe of LP. as the R.F. is brought back with the Tee in contact with the floor to Brush up to LP… when she will be on the Toe of LP. with Toe of R.F. touching the floor lightly. R.F. then moves diag. forward on the Toes lowering to the Heel and releasing it again as the LP. moves forward. (Note. This detailed description is often asked for when Footwork has been danced incorrectly.)
Q38. When does the R. Heel touch the floor again after stepping forward on the Heel on 4 of the Spin Turn? (Lady).
A38. At the end of the 6th step.
Q39. What is the difference between the 6th step of Man and Lady?
A39. Man’s 6th step is “side and slightly back.” Lady, “diag. forward.”
Q40. Why is this?
A40. The Lady’s L.F. tends to move away from Man on 5. Stepping diag. forward with R.F. will bring her back to normal position. The Lady’s normal position with her partner, slightly to Man’s R. side, is also a contributory factor. She must tend to step between Man’s feet in order to get a strong movement forward on 7.
Q41. On which beat, or part of beat, .does the Lady brush the R.F. in the Spin? What count could you give it?
A41. The 2nd half of the 5th beat. It could be counted—4, 5 , “and ” 6.
Q42. If used at a corner, how much turn would you make (a) on the complete Spin Turn; (13) between each step on 4, 5, 6 (Man and Lady)?
A42. (a) A complete turn, (b) 3/8 on 4; 1/4 between 5-6 as Man and Lady.
Q43. In which directions could you end the last part of the Reverse Turn when taken after a Spin Turn?

Q44. If ended down the L.O.D. what would follow 4, 5, 6 of Reverse Turn?

Q45. In which direction could you commence 1, 2, 3 of the Natural Turn which precedes a Backward Passing Change from Natural to Reverse?
A45. L.O.D., diag. to centre, or diag. to wall. The last one is not good, as the turn is so cramped, and will most likely result in bad alignment on. the actual Backward Passing Change.
Q46. If the Natural Turn is commenced facing the L.O.D., what would precede it?
A46. A L.F. Closed Change danced with a slight turn to the L. A complete Natural Turn danced at a comer, making only 1/4 turn on 4, 5, 6 to end facing the new L.O.D. A Reverse Corte danced with a 1/2 turn on the actual Corte, and then no turn on 4, 5, 6.
Q47. Is it good dancing to commence the Natural Turn into Backward Passing Change in a direction diag. to centre?
A47. Yes. It is possibly the best position as it ensures a flowing movement on the actual Backward Passing Change and a more attractive curve on it.
Q48. What would precede a Natural Backward Passing Change if you commenced 1,2, 3. of the Natural Turn diag. to centre?
A48. A complete Natural Turn along the side of the room, and then into 1, 2, 3 of Natural Turn and the Backward Passing Change. (M) An Outside Spin, taken after an Open Impetus Turn and Cross Hesitation. Make a complete turn on Outside Spin to end D.C.
