The thing that is different about this dance is that you face back in to your
current group of four after the first two California twirls instead of facing
away as you usually do after a California twirl. As a teaching point, you can
tell the dancers to use their joined hands to generate a bit of leverage to
propel each other back in towards their group of four. Some dancers will want
to add a full circle twirl as a flourish. The impetus for this can be generated
by using those joined hands to propel each other.
