Walter, since it's a gate, they are holding onto the original neighbors, and 
the statement that the actives are moving forward simply tells the pair who is 
moving forward and who backing up as they whirl around.  It's like a butterfly 
whirl but only holding hands, not arms about the waist.  It is a move more 
common in English Country Dance, but it is a fun swoopy way to get the actives 
swooped into the lines down the hall.  Great dance.
