HOW TO PLAY
1
Dancers link hands or shoulders in a line, led by the dancer at the front holding a handkerchief.
2
The leader sets a stomping step pattern that travels sideways along the line.
3
Everyone mirrors the stomps precisely, keeping the line's connection unbroken.
4
Every so often the leader adds a sharp foot flourish that ripples down the line as others copy in turn.
5
The dance concludes when the leader brings the line to a final synchronized stomp.
