A lot of callers teach Give and Take as starting in long lines, but that's not how
Larry Jennings invented it.  It 
starts in a shoulder-waist hold - as you would have if you opened out after a swing - I
find it much more satisfactory 
that way.

There are a number of dances where the ladies pull in the Give and Take, for instance
"Hemodynamic Contra"
by Andrea Nettleton.
