The left shoulder is in place
The right foot is level with
the left shoulder.
The body is over the left foot
The right shoulder is over the
right hip.
The weight is passing through.
There is no twisting of the spine
at any stage.
Have you had time to ask your ill
advises.

WRONG.

And besides, what you have described, even if it were right, would be only one frame of the video. A step is a SEQUENCE OF ACTIONS, during which many things evolve. You totally missed that when I pointed it out.

CBMP is
Left shoulder in place.
Right foot level with left shoulder
Weight over Left foot
Right shoulder over right hip

This could be third step of the
Feather or a Feather Finish both
are the same. The step is rather
static and is refered to as a foot
position only.
It might also be the fourth step
for the lady in a Reverse Weave in
the Waltz,
This step has a heel lead with
more drive. After all it is a
heel lead and heel leads usually
drive.
Lastly Anonymous You said . Even
if it were right. It is right
there are no if it were's

Anonymous. Sometimes you just don't seem to understand because you have some preconceived idea in your head. So lets put it this way. John Wayne in this movie is up wind to his partner.Keeping exactly the same distance between them they turn 1/2 a turn. Now who is up wind. It isn't John Wayne is it. It shouldn't be neccessary to have to give such a childish example.

On the contrary, the are both in exactly the same positions they started in, only each facing in a different direction. If they are some distance apart that would be obvious to you.

Now perhaps you meant that instead of each turning in place, the rotated around a common center. The problem is that if that is what you mean, then what you are describing is not an entry into CBMP/outside partner position, but actually a TURNING FIGURE.

And the whole argument started when I pointed out that you MUST NOT PASS YOUR PARTNER IN A NON-TURNING FIGURE.

If it's a turning figure, then yes, by all means, you may pass your partner.

If you wish to describe a non-turning figure, then you will have to stop using the word "turn" !

Anonymous. Stop using the word turn for a none turning figure.That's what you said
That's why John Wood uses the word rotate. To the average person if I turn my side towards you, then turn is the word to use, now we have two movements using the same word. So the word used to describe the turning of the sides is rotate. To turn in a turn uses the word turn as in a Reverse Turn.We don't call it a Reverse Rotation do we.We call it a Reverse Turn.
Please adjust the vocabulary
