Yesterday I called Haste to the Wedding [1] after an influx of new dancers and as a recovery from a dance that was a little too hard for the group. I expected it to go well, but I was surprised by how well, actually. With the clapping in time with the music in the B parts and the extra time for the pass through, a lot of people who'd been confused by progression and how this whole thing worked seemed to get it in a way that helped for following dances as well.
Does anyone have suggestions for other dances that work similarly,
teaching progression?
