When Once Removedness Goes Away

One of the items you must remember about dancing Once Removed is the position of the formation axis. If the position of the formation axis at the end of the call is different from its position at the beginning of the call, then the Once Removedness goes away.

These calls include but are not limited to:

Once Removed Pass the Ocean

Once Removed Lock It

This is also a good example of the Half Tag movement used in couples-type Once Removed setups. In this case, the centers are in a left-handed setup so they do a left Half Tag. The outsides are in a right-handed setup so they do a right (or normal) Half Tag.

The formation axis has changed in both of these examples, so the Once Removedness of the formation has gone away. The dancers are not required to be Once Removed at the end of these calls.
