Checkmate the Column
I call thru A2 & workshop some C1 stuff. I have a question for, hoping you can help me out.

Checkmate the Column. Could you please explain to me how this move is done from a completed double pass thru formation?? I have been workshopping this move knowing that some callers use it from the completed DPT set up.

As it turns out, last night I called Checkmate from several positions, including the Completed Double Pass Thru formation!

From a Completed Double Pass Thru, I explain that all dancers are #1 and #2 in the Columns. What do #1 and #2 do? They do 4 Column Circulates and 1/4 In. First I have just the Belles go, show them where they end up, then I have the original Beaus go. I then put everybody back and tell them that they must pass right-shoulders with any dancers they meet. I mention that the movement is similar to Track 2, but go a little further, and all Face In (in fact, it is a Track 4 and 1/4 In).
