One of the questions Rickey asked was whether dancers would have trouble with the sequence of circle, swing, circle a different amount, swing. I don't think this is particularly confusing sequence, but there may be other issues worth considering.
Cary Ravitz (http://ravitz.cnc.net/dance/call.shtml) suggests that dances with more than 32 counts of consecutive clockwise rotation should be examined closely. This dance has exactly but not more than 32 counts of same-direction movement. I would avoid doing more than one or two such dances in an evening's program because of potential dizziness and the wear on one's legs and arms of so much motion in the same direction. Given that, I can see this particular dance as a good "cruiser" requiring only a minimal (or no) walkthrough. Jerome
