aka Doin' Time

By Gary Shapiro

Gary writes "Warning! This dance is very strange! Do I dare try it out at the fabulous Carrillo Ballroom in Santa Barbara this Sunday? Comments? Choices? Trash it?"

• allemande Left next neighbor (#4) to start return trip.
• Pull by neighbor #3 with Right hands,

  • It doesn't matter which people allemande.

A1

• face neighbor (#2) along the long lines and pull by with Left hands and continue as above.

Gary notes, "In A1, the set is a squashed circle formed by joining across at the ends."

"End effects: if you pull by R in B2 and there seems to be nobody there to give your Left hand to, there is somebody there: your partner! Participate in the pull bys, balance & swing in B1 and get ready to join the dance with your Left hand at the end of B2/beginning of A1."
