Style:  English

A1: Circle left and right in fours.
A2: Circle left and right in two big circles (inside couples in one circle, outsides in another).
B1: Right hand star; left hand star.
B2: Do-si-do opposite person.  Take hands with partner, go forward in pairs to meet opposites; fall back moving left to meet next couple.
