or any Two Step song with similar tempo and rhythm
Note: The direction of each step or weight change is defined by points of the
clock. The direction that a dancer faces may also be defined by points of the
clock. Stage "front" shall be denoted as 12:00; Stage "right" shall be denoted as
3:00; Stage "back" shall be denoted as 6:00; and Stage "left" shall be denoted as
9:00. Diagonal directions of travel shall be denoted around the clock as 1:30,
4:30, 7:30, and 10:30, respectively. The amount of rotation for pivots and turns is
determined from the amount of change in clock directions and refers to the
rotation of the dancer's footwork, but does not necessarily indicate the amount of
body rotation, or the body's "facing" contra or open alignment while stepping.
