dosido
Circling barn call
Dosido is a square dance move where two dancers approach each other, pass right shoulders, move around each other back-to-back without turning, and return to their starting positions.
The caller shouts dosido your partner to signal the move.
The spelling varies: do-si-do, do-se-do.
From French dos-à-dos, meaning back to back.
