This might be problematic for ECD dancers as Fried de Metz Herman "invented" 
this figure. It is basically it is a reverse back to back ( dos-si-do), i.e. 
fall back past partner (neighbour) right shoulder, step right and walk forward 
to place.

As mentioned, in square dancing you have a walk around corner/partner. This is 
to all intents and purposes is a gypsy.
