ALL 4 COUPLES / ALL 8 CONCEPT

These concepts are applied to 4-dancer calls, and allow all eight dancers to do the call at once.

Generally: All 4 Couples if initial travel of all 8 is around perimeterAll 8 all other cases.

All the hand actions and shoulder passes are the same as for the basic call. However, passing the other dancers alternate between right shoulders and left shoulders.

Hints:1. Based on the call, identify the 4 dancers whom you will work with.2. Do the call as if the other 4 dancers weren't there. Avoid colliding with them either by using a star when you go

through the middle or passing them on the perimeter.3. At the end of the call you must adjust (without turning) to the nearest static square footprints of the wall you are

facing.4. If you end on Thar spots, you don't adjust.

There is a separate brochure All 4 / All 8 Concepts

Bei diesem Konzept werden die selben 4 Tänzer-Figuren von 8 Tänzern gleichzeitig getanzt.

Allgemein gilt: All 4 Couples die ersten Bewegungen aller laufen außen herum, rechtsschultrig am Corner vorbei.All 8 alle anderen Calls werden ALL 8 genannt.

Alle Handaktionen und Schulter-Begegnungen sind die selben wie beim Basic Call. Beim Passieren der “anderen” Tänzerwird die passierende Schulter gewechselt.

Tipps:1. Identifiziere die 4 Tänzer, mit denen du die Figur, wie definiert, tanzt. Heads arbeiten zusammen und Sides auch.2. Tanze die Figur als wären die anderen 4 nicht da. Vermeide Kollisionen indem du in der Mitte einen Star bildest

oder die anderen 4 Tänzer außen wechselschultrig passierst.3. Am Ende der Figur wird die eigene Position so justiert, daß man in den nächst gelegenen Static-Square-Fußstapfen

endet, die parallel zu der Wand liegen, die man anschaut. Bei wenigen Calls muß man sich dazu zurück bewegen.4. Wenn du in einem Thar endest, ist kein Justieren notwendig.

Box Counter RotateSF any 4-dancer formation with no dancers facing the flagpole center: The diagrams show the beginning and ending positions for a single dancer.

EACH DANCER independently walks in a 90° arch around the center of the formation.

Think of: Leaders Quarter In and Box Circulate,Trailers Box Circulate and Quarter In. If no fraction is given, Box Counter Rotate means Box Counter Rotate¼ (90°). Box Counter Rotate 1/2 = 2 Box Counter Rotates and so on.

Split Counter Rotate

SF any 2x4 formation, e.g., parallel waves, parallel columns:EACH HALF OF THE SQUARE does a BOX COUNTER ROTATE.

e.g. Split Counter Rotate 1/4:

SPLIT / BOX TRANSFER

Box TransferSF any symmetric 2x2 formation with 2 leaders and 2 trailers:LEADERS BOX CIRCULATE TWICE and QUARTER IN,TRAILERS EXTEND, ARM TURN 3/4, and EXTEND.

Split Transfer

TRAIL OFF SF Tandem Couples, Box Circulate, or Tandem Dancers in a Z Trail Off may be thought of as a "Cross" Peel OffLEADER WALK in a approximate semicircle

to become the far ends of a four-dancer line. TRAILER WALK in a small semicircle around the center point of the SF

to become the centers of the forming line. For Tandem Couples each couple must begin their semicircles by crossing paths.

The Beau allows the Belle to cross in front (Half Sashay), feels like left shoulder Partner Trade

For Box Circulate and Right or Left-Hand Z formations, each TRAILER moves forward then TRADES with the OTHER TRAILER.

The dancers adjust to end in the center line they started from. Trail Off can not be fractionalized.
