Question:

The first 4 bars of Miss Flora's Favourite (Graded Book, dance 24) are described for 1st couple. But, for 2nd couple the instructions simply say step up with no indication of when? Bars 3 and 4 would be the "traditional" timing despite the problems this sometimes creates for first man - "by habit" he finds he has transferred weight onto his right foot at the end, and thus can't start the skip change on bar 5!

Answer:

Stepping up should be on bars 3 and 4.
