Terence. And so there shouldn't. I could be forgiven for thinking that they couldn't spell and were heading for the rest room door.

Hi,
maybe you can put a reverse turn incorporating feather finish, you can base it also depending on the preceeds and follows, you can refer to both istd book by Alex Moore or idta book by Guy Howard. also if you can find the book by henry jaques.

I think the trouble with this problem is that before there ever was a Featherstep there was a Three Step which had a intro on the LF with beats 12 and 3 4 for the following steps. This could have the Feather following which does happen often with todays dancers.Those who have John Wood's tape will see how he demonstrates a Three Step Diag to centre followed by a Natural Turn into a Wave. Any Social Dancers it would be better if this was ignored. Its only for the egg heads who like wrestling with problems. You can also find Marcus Hilton doing a Thee Step following a Change of Direction followed by a Feather and a Reverse Movement all on the diag to centre

You make a very valid point !

Students need to realise, that prof. competitors often take great " licence " with the material they use in their conquest for 1st place .

You would be well advised to stay with solid foundational material in your early development
