This dance has some troublesome transitions. The 8 count swing at the start
of the B1 would require a tune with a strongly half-phrased B. The
transition from ladies chain to star right is awkward ( should that be star
left?). Another minor issue is the ladies chain crossing the phrase. I
venture to guess that she is misremembering the dance.
