Calling Notes:

My best guess as to this dance. Starting with the second ring balance, the instructions were:
"Balance again; Get Cozy (Men arch their Right hands, Women duck under Cozynella-style)
Fly to the Right; Women trade places back to back (ending up against their Neighbor's arm), Men turn round (to face the opposite direction); Fly to the Left (keep this lady - on your right & promenade)
