That  would be great!  Hope you can share the ones that work  well with us,  
with  his permission,  of course.

At a dance we rarely have that  few  people left, but for an informal gathering 
I'm always  looking for ways to keep people on the floor.

I usually consider 5 couple a minimum for a regular contra dance, but triples 
like Money Musk require more people.
A caller up here, Byron Ricker, has been writing a few dances that he calls 
"quad beckets."  Quad becket dances are becket dances that can be danced with 4 
or more couples and that never leaves anyone out (unless there are an odd 
number of couples). Many, but not all becket dances work this way.  With just 4 
couples left, I've sometimes called a quad becket with some success.
