A1- Balance ring, pass through to an ocean wave
      And balance again, allemande right 3/4 to form long waves (men facing out, women in)
A2- Balance, women cross set to where partner is standing as men turn into the place of the
      woman on their right. Form new long waves with the women facing out and the men in.
      Balance, “rotate” again (men walking across set, women looping around to the right)
B1- Swing partner on the side (the same side you started on)
      Circle left halfway, roll away with a half sashay to trade places with neighbors (across set)
B2- Circle left halfway, roll away with a half sashay to trade places with partners (along set)
      Circle left halfway, and shift left along the set to face new neighbors
