Note:
Checker Board | Box is often taught as: Leaders Trade as
the Others move into the Center and make the given formation
(a 1 x 4 if Checker Board, or a 2 x 2 if Checker Box),
do the
anything call and then get back to the vacated
spots. As dancers, we prefer to do the
anything call working in a
Distorted Column | Line | Wave | Box. That is, try to stay on the original
spots and only move off them if necessary. For example, from Parallel L-H
Waves, if the call is Checker Box Cross & Turn, the Trailing End (Belle) would
simply U-Turn Back instead of move into the Center, make a Box, U-Turn Back,
and Veer out to become an End.
