Dance starts with the couple in closed position with the man on the inside of the circle facing out. Feet are together and the weight is on the right foot for the man and on the left foot for the lady. Man starts with his left foot, lady will start with her right foot. The following description is for the man's foot work, the lady's is the natural opposite.

Turn ¼ left & step forward with left foot (turning away from partner), touch right toe next to left foot. Turn ¼ right and step side with right (to face partner), touch left next to right
Max's Note: You are moving from closed position into promenade, then back to closed-technically the amount of turn out to assume promenade position should only be 1/8 instead of ¼, but I am using the original cue sheet.
