Women use both hands on skirt, moving skirt forward and back to avoid opposite dancer. *Dancers should maintain eye contact over their shoulders until their partners become visible.* [underlining mine] *Comment: *Square dancing is evolving towards a preference for "Walk Around the Corner" instead of "All Around The Left-Hand Lady", which requires the women to mentally translate the command to "All Around The Right-Hand Man". While I'm not suggesting we adopt the MWSD nomenclature (in particular, the left-shoulder version is called "See Saw" in current MWSD which is something different in current contra), I do want to point out that the dance action is exactly what we desire for a right-shoulder gy--y. The only difference is that MWSD it is essentially restricted to exactly 1x around, and in contra gy--y is 'as far as directed'. -- /Andy Shore Santa Cruz, CA http://andyshore.com/
