Get into position by facing your partner. If you are the leader, place your right hand on your partner's waist slightly around the back and extend your left hand to your side with your elbow bent and your palm raised, facing her. With that hand, grasp your partner's right hand in a loose grip, and make sure your partner has her left hand on your right shoulder, with her elbow bent. She should mirror your movements.
On the first beat, step forward gracefully with your left foot. Your partner should follow your lead by doing the opposite of what you do on each beat - in this case, stepping back with her right foot.
On the second beat, step forward and to the right with your right foot. Trace an upside-down letter L in the air with your foot as you do this.
Shift your weight to your right foot. Keep your left foot stationary.
On the third beat, slide your left foot over to your right and stand with your feet together.
On the fourth beat, step back with your right foot.
On the fifth beat, step back and to the left with your left foot, this time tracing a backward L. Shift your weight to your left foot.
On the final beat, slide your right foot toward your left until your feet are together; now you're ready to start over with your left foot.
Repeat steps 2 through 8 turning your and your partner's orientation slowly to the left by slightly varying the placement of your feet.
