Rainbow Stroll

Definition:

ID: 55

From a Squared Set.

Join hands with partner, take 3 steps toward the center, on beat 4 do a U-Turn Back by turning away from partner;
join hands with new partner (original corner), take 3 steps away from the center, while starting to raise joined hands, on beat 4 do a California Twirl;

Everyone is now with their corner, in a squared set (rotated by 45°).

Repeat 1 and 2, for a total of 4 times, to end with original partner, halfway across the set.

Comments and Examples:

Rainbow Stroll is like Grand Square: dancers need to dance to the beat and not rush it.

Rainbow Stroll

Definition:

ID: 852: This movement was originally named the "Tucson Prowl". From a squared set: All take partner and walk into the center of the set. All quarter out (sort of) and walk out with the corner person to corner's original home spot where all California Twirl. Do this three more times and all will be home again with partners. Gets a little crowded in the middle. Men must be sure to make square corners and walk straight out to the corner spot each time, guiding the corner girl into the proper facing.; George Waudby 1961
