Notes: All pivot swings are clockwise. For those using recorded music: The Portland Selection recording plays the tune 4 times through. For the 4th time through, I suggest a right-shoulder back-to-back/ pivot swing, and then a left-shoulder back-to-back/pivot swing. You won't wind up with your original partner, but you'll have fun.
