Note: The words
Left and
Reverse have traditionally been used to
indicate
Mirror (e.g., Left Swing Thru, Reverse Flutter Wheel) but their
usage is inconsistent. Dancers may not know what is intended when
something like 'Left Circle By' is called. Should one Circle Left the
first given fraction then Left Touch the next given fraction? Or,
since you are normally moving to the Left on a Circle By, should one
Circle Right the first fraction?
Reverse can also mean
'
In Reverse Order',
'Rewind', or have other meanings ('Reverse Stack The Line':
original
Trailers instead of Leaders go across to
right hands!). If we
only had the choice of using
Left or
Reverse, what would the Mirror version of
Shake & Rattle
be called? The Mirror version of Shakedown is
called Left Shakedown and the Mirror version of Reverse Split Swap is
called Split Swap! The
Mirror C
ONCEPT resolves these
ambiguities.
