Back whisk twist turn back whisk. I am just learning this sequence and would be happy to receive any tips that would help to make it flow. Thanks

That's not what I would call a double whisk: which is an ordinary whisk, not followed by a chasse, but by a step out of whisk position for "1", a second (checked) step for "&" before replacing weight back for "2", and returning to whisk position for "3", followed immediately by a normal chasse, counted 1, 2 & 3.

>cdroge, I don't think your original description is correct in starting with a back whisk.

I would call Clive's a whisk and syncopated whisk.

The double whisk I know is Alex Moore's whisk and left whisk as at the start of his variation that you suggested. He follows the left whisk with a twist turn and outside spin or impetus turn. You could use a back whisk as an alternative ending.

There's no rise for the man on the left whisk. The untwist happens on ball of RF and heel of LF with feet flat. Try twisting left from your desired finishing position to see where your feet should be when crossed in the left whisk.

Socialdancer it is silly to say there is no rise on a back whisk in the Waltz,I don't know where you got that idea from.
