Corners Pass And Twirl

Bars: 4 or some multiple thereof.

Corners Pass and Twirl Similar to Corners Pass and Turn except the corners only do a half turn by the right (not a full one) and pull back their right shoulders to the sidelines.

The middle couple start facing their 1st corners and loop around them as the 1st corners come together and right hand turn half and pull back right shoulders to change places. The middle couple pass right to face 2nd corners and loop around them as they turn and twirl. The middle couple pass right to finish in 2nd place on their own side.

History

The earliest example of this figure I can find is from John Drewrey's dance Get Weaving, from 1994.
