Why not move or circle to the left by moving your left foot first and then bringing the right back to your normal stance rather than moving the right making your stance narrow. I'd be told off sooooo badly in my gym for doing that!

I've always been told to step first with the right when moving right, left when moving left, the front foot when moving forwards and the rear foot when moving back.
