Circling right

[Sharla]

If circling left the right foot takes you there, if you move the front foot independantly youre reaching, losing balance and power stability is lost.

I agree Scrap. On the other hand (or foot) I think you'd move the left foot first if you're circling right. I think that's what he meant to ask about in the first place.

Are you sure?

I was taught the opposite:

1) lift the foot on the same side as the direction you are going,
2) use the supporting foot to push off,
3) set the first foot down,
4) bring the other foot up to make your feet the original distance apart.

Of course this I guess is sidestepping and does not require a pivot so what we're talking about here may be two different options?
