Flutterwheel / Reverse Flutterwheel Typical starting formation - facing dancers

The right-side dancers leave their current partner and Right Arm Turn with each other a full turn, each ending where they started. Halfway through this motion, they take a couple handhold with the other dancer (i.e., the one they were originally facing directly), and the second half of the Arm Turn is completed with each new couple working as a unit.

For Reverse Flutterwheel, use the same dance action, except that the left-side dancers Left Arm Turn.

Separate Typical starting formation - pair of dancers facing out of the square

Case 1: The active or designated couple is on Squared Set spots; The dancers turn back-to-back and start walking forward in opposite directions around the outside of the square away from each other until they meet another dancer. The call ends here unless further instructions are given (for example, "and come back home").
Case 2: The active or designated couple is in the center facing out of the square (for example, after Heads Slide Thru, Square Thru 2); The couple steps forward and then performs the Separate action described above.
