2.1: WAVES AND OTHER LINES

In the illustrations in this section, the Centers are marked with the letter "C" and shaded in green, while the Ends are marked with the letter "E" and shaded in orange.
The same labels can apply to a single wave of four dancers, in isolation. Note that, in the case of parallel waves, the same dancers who are the centers of each wave are the centers of the overall formation of eight dancers.

These labels apply in exactly the same way to other cases of parallel lines, such as two-faced lines and back-to-back lines.
