Definitions of Square Dance Calls and Concepts
 
 

Right Wing anything:
Do the anything call as if you started as a Beau. That is, if you are a Belle, do the anything call as if you had first side-stepped to the left to become a Beau (i.e., assume that the starting formation is a Right-handed setup).

Left Wing anything:
Do the anything call as if you started as a Belle.

注意:

Standard applications:

Right Wing Follow Thru:

 
   
Right Wing Follow Thru
之前
 imagine you are here
(everyone is a Beau)
 之后

Beaus dance the call normally; The Trailing Belle does a Cross Extend & Hinge; The Lead Belle does a Step Thru & 1/4 Right.

Right Wing Follow Your Neighbor:

 
 
Right Wing Follow Your Neighbor
之前
 之后

Beaus dance the call normally, as Belles pretend that they are Beaus and do the call. The Trailing Belle does a Cross Extend & Cast Off 3/4, as the Lead Belle does a Step Thru & (in place) Right-face 3/4 turn.

Right Wing Transfer The Column:

之前
 Right Wing Transfer And Nothing
之后
 Centers Cast Off 3/4 & all Extend
之后
(完成)

Harder applications:

Left Wing Circulate:

 
 
Left Wing Circulate
之前
 之后

Same as Beaus work Crossover: all Circulate.

Left Wing Spin The Top:

 
   
Left Wing Spin The Top
之前
 Left Wing Arm Turn 1/2
之后
 Fan The Top
之后
(完成)

From here, pretend that the starting formation is a Left-Hand Wave (i.e., everyone is a Belle). On the first part of the call, the Belles do a normal Left Arm Turn 1/2 whereas the Beaus do a Left-face U-Turn Back. The Beaus turn to the Left because they imagine that the starting formation is a Left-hand wave.


Examples where the cheat of 'Slide then do the call' doesn't work:

Right Wing Follow To A Diamond:

 
 
Right Wing Follow To A Diamond
之前
 之后
Leaders work Right Wing: all Follow Your Neighbor:

 
 
Leaders work Right Wing:
all Follow Your Neighbor
之前
 之后

Since only the Leaders are working Right Wing, the Leaders can't cheat by doing a Slide because the adjacent spot is occupied by another dancer.
