From any formation.

If you had turning motion on your last part of the previous call, then turn an extra 1/4 (90°) in place toward that direction.If you had turning motion on your last part of the previous call, then turn an extra 1/4 (90°) in place toward that direction.

Notes:
  • Often the caller may add a helper phrase such as "to face" (e.g., "Roll to face") as a cue to tell dancers which way to turn.
  • Be careful. Only turn 1/4 if, on your last part of the previous call, you had a turning direction. If you were moving forward (e.g., Pass Thru, or Extend), sideways (e.g., Dodge), or backing up, without changing your facing direction, you can not Roll.
  • Turn 1/4 in place. Do not move from your spot.
  • Roll requires you to better learn your square dance call definitions, since you need to know who can Roll after specific calls.
