Hi Charlie, Thanks for your ideas on the dance. I would like the first couple to have more time to fool around, so the extra time won't be a problem. By fool around i would suggest a longer gypsy, a longer swing, or maybe some swing dance moves, whatever comes to their minds. It is an invitation for dance creativity. Where else in life do we get extra time with a partner? So if you'd like to call the dance, please let folks know about the possibilities.
