Revolving Door
This page, which describes the move known as a
Revolving Door, is part of the
Turnstep Dictionary at
www.turnstep.com.
A revolving door brings you over the bench
and back again with four small turns. You will turn in a
complete circle as you do it. You can also make it a
four count move called "1/2 a revolving door" by not
crossing back over after count 4. Note that you will face
all four directions while doing this move.
This move is done in 8 counts:
- 1. Step up on the bench with the lead foot, turning
slightly as you do so.
- 2. Bring the other foot up on top of the bench as you
complete a small turn.
- 3. Step down with the lead foot to the other side
of the bench, turning slightly.
- 4. Bring the other foot down next to the lead foot,
completing a small turn. You are now facing the
opposite direction from count 1.
- 5. Step up on the bench with the lead foot, turning slightly.
- 6. Bring the other foot up on the bench as you complete
a small turn. You are now facing the opposite direction
from count 2.
- 7. Step down with the lead foot, turning slightly.
- 8. Bring the other foot down next to the lead foot,
completing the last of four small turns. You are facing
the same direction as when you started.
