On of my co-callers when teaching at our dance always refers to do-si-do as "just like you learned in 4th grade" and most do remember that one move. Maybe a New England thing? Anyway, you can drive that tradition of adults remembering do-si-do.
But please, please, don't do that "folding the arms in front of you" thing. I don't know where that move got started (squares? 7 Brides for 7 Brothers?) but it's impossible to get rid of. Whenever I do a party gig and I call a dosido, there's always somebody in the crowd who does that and then _everybody_ does it. It's like a virus.
