  • A Hinge is 1/2 of a Trade.

    • Single Hinge [Mainstream]
      • From a Mini-Wave. Arm Turn 1/4.
    • Partner Hinge [A1]
      • From a Couple. As one movement, face each other and Step to a Right-Hand Mini-Wave.

    The word 'Single' or 'Partner' is optional, as 'Hinge' sufficiently describes this movement.

    The caller usually uses the term 'Single Hinge' from a Mini-Wave, and 'Partner Hinge' from a Couple.

  • Dancers doing the call must be adjacent, either in a Couple or in a Mini-Wave.
    From a Line of 4, it is inappropriate to call Ends Partner Hinge, even though the Ends could do 1/2 of a Trade.
