Notes:
-
Pass The Sea is a 3-part call.
-
Pass The Sea is the same as Pass The Ocean
except that you step to a Left-hand
Wave instead of a Right-hand Wave.
-
Ocean means Right, Sea means Left.
- Pass The Ocean: Pass Thru; 1/4 In; (Right) Touch.
- Pass The Sea: Pass Thru; 1/4 In; Left Touch.
-
When dancing Pass The Sea, blend the 3-parts into one smooth movement.
-
From a R-H Wave, Pass The Sea feels different because the
Pass Thru is very quick ('rear-back' if you need to see where you
are). In this case, the Pass Thru is the same as a Step Thru.
-
Be sure that the ending formation is a Left-hand Wave!
