I'm in  the process of writing a book on the ins and outs of   
choreography.  The last chapter is a glossary of uncommon moves  used  
in contras.  I remember, maybe 15 years ago, someone wrote  a dance  
that used a move called a hockey stick.  Does anyone  know the dance/ 
know the move?  My memory is that dancers walk across  the set single  
file and then turn a quarter and move either up or  down.

Also,  I may have discovered some regional differences in  the move  
cast off.  I realize that cast off isn't done as much  as it was many  
years ago, but I wanted to know how you do it in your  area.  Say the  
ones go down the hall, return and cast off with  the twos.  Do the  
twos act as a pivot point?  Or do the  twos back up while the ones  
cast (the pivot is between the  dancers).

Thanks for you  help!!!!
