 | | Arms and hands are held as in the closed position except that the man should shift his right hand down slightly from under the ladys shoulder blade to her left side; his left hand should be held in front of his left shoulder, rather than out to the side. |  | | This position is found in many folk or round dances and also in a number of Latin-American dance steps. |  | | This is a Pretzel Position with the mans left hand (still holding her right hand) lifted over his head to rest at the back of his neck. |
