Always carry a set of easy fun dances. I have 20-30 such dances, which I always bring in case of such emergencies. A personal email to me will get you my list. Michael Fuerst 802 N Broadway Urbana IL 61801 217-239-5844

It has been my impression that most of the best callers can handle this situation well. They bring the new dancers into the dance, and everyone still has fun doing it. Although the skills of the caller are important, the dance community must also help. How do you, as a caller, handle this, and what does the dance community (the experienced dancers) need to do to make it work? _______________________________________________ Callers mailing list [email protected] http://www.sharedweight.net/mailman/listinfo/callers
