Thanks for this very helpful video! I'm wondering… why does the pattern begin and end in diagonal wall position? Does it really make any difference? Also, why are the names "hockey stick" and "fan" used? Thanks!

Hi, @learnwithjeff6110! According to the theory book we study by, fan commences facing diagonal wall against line of dance, and hockey stick ends facing diagonal wall against line of dance. So for syllabus, that is the technical way to dance it. However, there is no problem with beginning or ending with a different alignment for open or recreational dancing. As for the names, those are the syllabus names given in the book of technique. Hope this helps!
