Sway

Start with man’s right to lady’s right.

Both take a step back, at the same time making a half loop movement with the right hand, to the right.

The man pulls the lady towards himself, using his right arm. As the lady moves forward, she turns anti-clockwise, 180°.

The lady comes into the man’s right side.

The man has his right hand on the lady’s right hip.

You both then take a step back.

The man offers his left hand in front of the lady at waist height, to support the lady’s left hand.

The man and lady now walk forward for 2 (or more) beats.

The man then releases the lady’s left hand, gently nudging her forward with his right arm.

The lady turns 180° clock-wise to face the man.

The man keeps hold with his right hand as the lady comes round to face him.

You can now return the lady or transfer the hand-hold to your left.
