Of course my favorite has to be "Lady Walpole's Reel".
Lady Walpole's Reels
Improper Formation
A1:
(16) Neighbors balance and swing
A2:
(8) Active couples down the center
(8) Turn alone and return, cast off
B1:
(8) Ladies chain
(8) Ladies chain
B2:
(8) Promenade
(8) Right and left through
Not only is this a neighbor swing only dance, but it is one of those
"old chestnuts" that has been around for 200 + years. It is also one of
the first improper dances of the time.
A must dance to its signature tune...
