DEFINITION: Like tag the line, except the dancers stop walking forward when the original centers from each side of the line meet. STARTING FORMATION: Any line with an even number of dancers. TIMING: Facing lines with pass thru, tag the line full, 8 steps; three quarters, 7; one half, 6; one quarter, 5 steps. Two-faced line tag the line full, 6 steps; three quarters, 5; one half, 4; one quarter, 3. STYLE: Arms in natural dance position, hands ready to assume appropriate position for the next call.
