ID: 55

From a Squared Set.

Join hands with partner, take 3 steps toward the center, on beat 4 do a U-Turn Back by turning away from partner;
join hands with new partner (original corner), take 3 steps away from the center, while starting to raise joined hands, on beat 4 do a California Twirl;

Everyone is now with their corner, in a squared set (rotated by 45°).

Repeat 1 and 2, for a total of 4 times, to end with original partner, halfway across the set.

Comments and Examples:

Rainbow Stroll is like Grand Square: dancers need to dance to the beat and not rush it.
