Here's a dance I like to call especially when it's hot. If anyone knows the name of the dance and the composer please let me know.
A1, A2 In a ring of four balance. Pet. spin. Repeat three more times. B1 Circle left. Swing neighbor B2 Forward and back. Actives swing. I usually do this one early in the evening (maybe the 3rd dance). Having done the Pet. spins, the dancers can usually handle a higher level dance with the same spins.
