Alternate definition: EN: 30
Square Thru but on the second hand Left Swing Thru 1 & 1/2; Step Thru. EN: 40

Noter:
  • Don't rush this call. It's a long call, and has many parts. It requires cooperation and teamwork. EN: 50
  • Square Chain Thru ends in Back-to-Back Couples. As such, be sure to end back-to-back with the dancer with whom you do the Left Turn Thru. EN: 60
  • Upon completion of the call, join hands with the adjacent dancer to form a Couple. EN: 70
  • When teaching Square Chain Thru, We've found that a hard part is for the original Beaus to wait while the original Belles Right Arm Turn 1/2. If you're an original Beau, stay in place and wait for the original Belles to Trade, then do the Left Turn Thru. EN: 80
  • Square Chain Thru starts like a Square Thru [Basic]. As such, use alternating hands (Right Pull By and 1/4 In, then get ready with the Left-Hand for the Left Swing Thru). EN: 90
  • As with all Turn Thrus, be sure to step Back-to-Back with the other dancer when you're done. Look behind yourself to verify that you are lined-up and back-to-back with that dancer. If not, adjust so that you are! EN: 100
  • The end result of Square Chain Thru is the same as Lead Right [Basic] or Wheel Thru [A1]. EN: 110
