CALLERLAB Program: Advanced 1
Pass the Sea
Links: Define – Analyze – Module
Teaching Suggestions
Pass the Sea
A) Review the definition of Pass the Ocean: “Pass Thru; Face your Partner; Step to a Wave”.
B) Pass the Sea has a weaving action – pass right shoulders, then turn in and step to a Left Wave.
C) Note that Pass the Sea is NOT a left-hand version of Pass the Ocean because the handedness is not changed on the Pass Thru.
Quick quote: “Pass, Quarter In, Step to a Left Wave”
