In this move, the dancers adjust the end of a Closed Basic move so that they can repeat the move with
mirrored positions. The footwork remains the same, resulting in two iterations of the six-beat rhythm, but
for the second iteration the partners start in a reversed side position, with the follower on the leader's
left hand side, with his left arm around her back.
